Fax server integration is one of the advanced features supported with Unity Connection providing additional messaging capabilities. It enables users to receive faxes in the mailbox and forward a received fax to other users or fax machines for printing. Users can manage faxes using phone, Messaging Inbox, or IMAP client. Unity Connection interacts with the third-party fax servers directly through Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP). Inbound faxes are received by the third-party fax servers and routed to the Unity Connection server through SMTP. Similarly, faxes are routed to the third-party fax servers through SMTP for rendering and outbound faxing. For more information on fax servers supported with Unity Connection, see the “Third-Party Fax Servers Integration” chapter of the Design Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release 15, available at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/15/design/guide/b_15cucdg.html.
