76 Offramp Gateway

Offramp Gateway

The offramp gateway function allows for E-mail or Internet Fax sent from another device to be converted into standard fax
data via this equipment, which will be sent to the recipient specified by the sender via a public telephone line. This is useful
in reducing communication costs by using a combination of both the Internet and public telephone lines. For example,
when sending documents long distances, such as overseas, the Internet can be used to send the document to a machine
in the country of destination and then it will be forwarded to a target fax machine as fax data via a public telephone line.

Specifying an E-mail address

When you want to use this equipment as a relay station to perform an offramp gateway transmission, ask the sender to
specify an E-mail address as follows.
FAX=xxxxxxxx@FQDN
The fax number of the final recipient is specified in “xxxxxxxx”.
e.g.: In case that the fax number is “1234567890” and the domain name of this equipment (FQDN) is
“host1.toshibatec-ifax.com”, the fax should be sent to
FAX=1234567890@host1.toshibatec-ifax.com
Sending to a subaddress
FAX=xxxxxxxx/T33S=yyyy@FQDN
The fax number of the final recipient is specified in “xxxxxxxx” and the subaddress in “yyyy”.
e.g.: In case that the fax number is “1234567890”, the subaddress is “1234”, and the domain name of this equipment
(FQDN) is “host1.toshibatec-ifax.com”, the fax should be sent to
FAX=1234567890/T33S=1234@host1.toshibatec-ifax.com

SMTP is a server protocol for sending and receiving E-mails. To use the offramp gateway function, you need to set up the
SMTP server so that this equipment can receive E-mails and Internet Fax using SMTP. For details of the operation, refer
