T.37 Advanced Usage

Introduction

For individual faxes, you can use the commands below to override settings entered in the administrator or user web interface. Many options for the use of email to fax (T.37) follow the Request For Comment (RFC) standards provided by the IETF. We will briefly describe some of these options, but in-depth descriptions are available at the IETF website (www.ietf.org) where you will need to search for the relevant RFC number to see the explanations.

Using T.37 for the sending of faxes involves entering one or more options in a specific format

(option=value) with multiple options divided by a forward slash (/). All options must be entered exactly as shown or else they will not trigger the event, whereas the value statements are replaced by specific values allowed by the command. The easiest way to understand this is to present a list of the options and give an example of how it would be used below it. Capitalized OPTIONS must be entered as shown; italicized values will be replaced by characters and/or numbers specific to the fax you are sending.

Options

FAX=number

[Required, all other settings are optional] Where "number" is the fax number to dial.

Example: FAX=555-1234@example.test

COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=truefalse

Example: FAX=5551234/COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=false@example.test

COVER-PAGE-NAME=name

Where "name" is the filename of the cover page on the FF240-IP.

Example: FAX=5551234/COVER-PAGE-NAME=mts_template2.pdf@example.test

ATTN=name

Where "name" is the name of the recipient the fax is being sent to and will be filled in on the cover page.

Example: FAX=5551234/ATTN=John Smith/COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=true@example.test

ORG=name

"name" is the name of Organization the fax is being sent to and will be filled in on the cover page. Example: FAX=5551234/ORG=Multitech Systems@example.test

INLINE-COMMENTS=truefalse

Inline comments specifies whether the message body is treated as cover page comments or not. By default, the first inline text body part will be used as the cover page comments. This can be changed by setting /INLINE-COMMENTS=false.

Example: FAX=5551234/INLINE-COMMENTS=false@example.test

FAX-PRIORITY=0-5

The fax priority specifies the order of scheduling (0 is highest and 5 is lowest).

Example: FAX=5551234/FAX-PRIORITY=5@example.test

RECEIPT=alwaysfailurenever

Controls when an email receipt for the fax is sent to the sender. "always" means send an email receipt for successful and failed faxes, "failure" means only send a receipt if the fax failed to send, and "never" means not to send any receipt.

Example: FAX=5551234/RECEIPT=failure@example.test
