Various Avaya IP endpoints (not all shown).
Although the IP endpoints (H.323 and SIP telephon es) are not involved in the faxing operations,
they are present at both sites to verify that VoIP telepho ne calls are not affected by the FoIP
faxing operations and vice versa.
Outbound fax calls originating from the XMediusFAX fax server are sent to Session Manager
first, and then from Session Manager to Communicatio n Manager via SIP trunks. Based on the
dialed digits, Communication Manager will either dir ect the calls to the local fax machine, or to
the other site via an ISDN-PRI or SIP trunk. Inbound fax calls terminating to the XMediusFAX
fax server are sent from the local fax machine or from the re mote site are received by
Communication Manager. The calls are then directed to Session Manager for onward routing to
the XMediusFAX fax server via SIP trunks.
