Fax detect

[topogigio]

Hi,
I need to detect an incoming fax and transfer it to fax server app.

I noticed that there are "fax_detect" and "spandsp_start_fax_detect" apps. What is the difference?
My inbound route has a destination that point to a ring group (or a call center), how may I edit dialplan to create this behavior detecting an incoming fax?

thanks

You can add fax detection from the destinations page or directly edit the dial plan for the desired inbound route.
In the example 7200 is the fax server and 7801 is time condition but could just as easily be a Ring group etc.

Wow. I didn't notice that when there is a fax server configured, the destination page shows a "fax detection" option. That's great, thanks.
