3.13.4 Virtual TA

Virtual TA means the local hosts or PCs in the network that uses popular CAPI-based software such as RVS-COM or BVRP to access the router as a local ISDN TA for sending or receiving FAX messages over the ISDN line. Basically, it is a client/server network model. The built-in Virtual TA server handles the establishment and release of connections. The Virtual TA client, which is installed on the local hosts or PCs, creates a CAPI-based driver to relay all CAPI messages between the applications and the router CAPI module. Before describing the configuration of Virtual TA in the Vigor routers, please notice the following limitations.

As depicted in the above application scenario, the Virtual TA client can make an outgoing call or accept an incoming call to/from a peer FAX machine or ISDN TA, etc. Click the Virtual TA(Remote CAPI) Setup tab in the Quick Setup field to configure the Virtual TA features.
