Hi, i have a friend that have installed asterisk-1.8.x and he as me about how to detect a inbound fax call: I explaint my self:
How to detect and inboud call and redirect that call to an specify context,extension and priority?

Does asterisk-1.8 have this feature enable? How to do it? Please post and a little example :wink:

NOTE* He is using analog lines (TDM400P card)

If the call is determined to be a fax, based upon the receipt of fax tones, then it’ll fall over to a special extension in the current context called “fax.”

Cheers.
