Configuring FXS Devices

 

 

The FXS Devices screen allows you to see the status of the FXS devices connected to your

 

Services Router. You can also assign the port usage of each port on the FXS device.

NOTE: When a port is set to FAX, the VGA will only accept G.711 calls; even if only one port is set to FAX. G.711 is the international standard for encoding audio on a 64 kbps channel.

Refer to the following table for a description of the information displayed in the FXS Devices screen.
