[Asterisk-Users] Question about the 'fax' extension
I was looking at the wiki on 'Asterisk as a voice/fax switch' And was wondering if the extension 'fax' is global to extensions.conf Or just to the context it is in? The reason I ask, is that my PRI might have 5 channels that will be scrictly Fax, and to be functional, I need multiple 'fax' extensions in my various Contexts.

If you use extension dedicated to fax, then you don't need to use the fax extenstion, but just call the rxfax application directly as you would call the answer application exten => 123456,1,rxfax(.......) But of course you may just use different fax extensions for different contexts.

[Asterisk-Users] Question about the 'fax' extension
What happens if I want it to work over the same DiD though? Does Answer() take care of this? How do I jump to the fax extension if it detects a faxtone?

[Asterisk-Users] Question about the 'fax' extension
Ok, hopefully this allows me to have mutliple context's that each have their own fax extension. I will see if this works.
