The cisco option configures Cisco fax relay. The t38 option disables Cisco fax relay and enables T.38. Certain voice platforms such as the Cisco 5350 and 5400 support only T.38. For interoperability, T.38 must be explicitly configured on platforms where Cisco fax relay is the default. The system option allows the dial- peer to inherit the fax relay protocol that is configured globally with the voice service voip command. If nothing is configured under the voice service voip command, the default is Cisco fax relay. The default setting of the fax protocol command is the system option. Because the system option defaults to Cisco fax relay, VoIP dial-peers always default to Cisco fax relay when nothing is explicitly configured globally.

Troubleshooting These steps have been shown to resolve the majority of issues that involve fax relay over VoIP, VoATM, and VoFR. Information that is specific to a particular encapsulation type or fax relay type is noted.

  1. Identify and Isolate the Problem The first step to take when you troubleshoot any fax relay issue is to reduce the problem to its simplest form.
