Using FXS card for fax machine-CME

[jtphoneman]

Hello, I have a CME and would like to hook up a POTS fax to a FXS port. We are recieving 4 digits from the telco on a PRI and need to verify the config. Is this the only thing I need to do:

dial-peer voice 211 pots
destination-pattern <DID Number>
port <FXS port number>


Or Do I have to go under the FXS card and configure more parameters?

Thanks

you actually need to add this command under the fxs voice port:
connection-plar <did digits received>

that way the incoming dial peer will match the voice port and terminate the call to it.

What about the destination-pattern under the dial-peer, does it need to be only the 4 digits recieved or the whole 7 digit number?

incoming called-number is the first thing that needs to be setup. This is for inbound dial peer matching, otherwise the default DP 0 will take over.


dial-peer voice 1212 pots
destination-pattern 1212
port 0/0/0


Im not clear on the connection-plar command as this is used more for opx type ring down circuit.... Then again!!!

jeter is correct here. The solution I gave you is for analog trunks so disregard it. Go with jeter.

Got it:

dial-peer voice 1212 pots
destination-pattern 1212
port 0/0/0

Thanks!
