1. Introduction ® These Application Notes describe the procedures for configuring Multi-Tech FaxFinder IP Fax ® ® Server with Avaya Aura Communication Manager and Avaya Aura Session Manager. FaxFinder is an appliance-based fax server solution that sends and receives faxes over an IP network. FaxFinder utilizes T.38 Fax over Internet Protocol (FoIP) for sending media. In the tested ® configuration, FaxFinder interoperated directly with Avaya Aura Session Manager to send/receive faxes u

3. Configuration The test configuration was designed to emulate two separate sites with multiple Port Networks at one site, and modular Gateway resources at the other site. Each site was configured with Multi-Tech ® ® ® FaxFinder IP Fax Server, Avaya Aura Communication Manager and Avaya Aura Session Manager. Figure 1 illustrates the configuration used in the tested configuration. 3.1. Configuration Details In the tested configuration, Communication Manager Servers and Gateways at the t

Site B had an Avaya S8300 Communication Manager Server in an Avaya G450 Media Gateway. The FaxFinder server at this site communicated with Session Manager via SIP. On the Avaya G450 Media Gateway, the signaling and media resources supporting a SIP trunk connected to Session Manager were integrated directly on the media gateway processor. Endpoints at this site included Avaya 9600 Series IP Telephones (with H.323 and SIP firmware), and an analog fax machine. The IP telephones were not invo

Step Description 1. Verify Communication Manager License Use the display system-parameters customer-options command to verify that the Communication Manager license has proper permissions for features illustrated in these Application Notes. Navigate to Page 2, and verify that there is sufficient remaining capacity for SIP trunks by comparing the Maximum Administered SIP Trunks field value with the corresponding value in the USED column. The license file installed on the system

Step Description 2. Identify IP Interfaces Use the list ip-interface clan and list ip-interface medpro commands to identify IP interfaces in each network region. Interfaces in cabinet 01 (port network 1) as indicated in the Slot field are in IP network region 1 as indicated in the Net Rgn field. Testing with the TN2302 and TN2602 circuit packs were done separately. When testing with the TN2302, the TN2602 was disabled (turned off) and vice versa as indicated in the ON field. list i

Step Description 3. Administer IP Network Region 1 The configuration of the IP network regions (Steps 3 – 6) was already in place and is included here for clarity. At Site A, the Avaya G650 Media Gateway comprising port network 1 and all IP endpoints were located in IP network region 1. Use the display ip-network-region command to view these settings. A descriptive name was entered for the Name field. IP-IP Direct Audio (Media Shuffling) was enabled to allow audio traffic to be

Step Description 4. Administer IP Network Region 1 – Continued On Page 4, codec sets are defined for inter-region calls. In the case of the compliance test at Site A, calls from IP network Source Region 1 to IP network region 2 (dst rgn 2) used codec set 1. The default values were used for all other fields. At Site B, only one IP network region was used, so no inter-region settings were required. display ip-network-region 1 Page 4 of 20 Source

Step Description 7. Administer IP Node Name Use the change node-names ip command to create a node name that maps to the Session Manager IP address. This node name is used in the configuration of the SIP trunk signaling group in Step 11. change node-names ip Page 1 of 2 IP NODE NAMES Name IP Address CLAN1A 10.64.22.16 CLAN2A 10.64.22.19 CM-Remote 10.

Step Description 10. Administer IP Codec set – Fax settings On Page 2, set the FAX Mode field to t.38-standard. This is necessary to support the FaxFinder server assigned to IP network region 2. The Modem Mode field should be set to off. Leave the FAX Redundancy setting at its default value of 0. A packet redundancy level can be assigned to improve packet delivery and robustness of FAX transport over the network (with increased bandwidth as trade-off). Avaya uses IETF RFC-2198 and

Step Description 11. Administer SIP Signaling Group For the compliance test, a signaling group with the associated SIP trunk group was used for routing fax calls to/from the FaxFinder server via Session Manager. For the compliance test at Site A, signaling group 12 was configured using the parameters highlighted below. All other fields were set as described in [3]. The Group Type was set to sip. The Transport Method was set to the recommended default value of tls (Transport Lay
