CLI Procedure for Configuring the Voice/Fax Switch Module

There are two egress table entries assigned to a voice/fax switch module, one for voice and the other for fax. They are both configured for the same slot (lim) and channel number, but they have different egress phone numbers. A manipulation string is added to the egress phone number for the FAX port. To connect to this FAX port, the string "d#i1" must be entered. If the egress manipulation string is left empty, the voice port will be selected.

Since the voice/fax switch module supports only FXS and fax interfaces, the use of the manipulation string in the egress table does not cause any problems. Usually the manipulation string is used to forward digits to the interface, but in the case of FXS or fax, it is meaningless.

Example:

To configure the voice and FAX port configuration for a voice/fax switch module installed in limb-1:

Configure the voice port for phone number "1111."

CLI>set voice egressTable channelList

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<EgressIndex>	INTEGER (1..32)
<ChannelList>	"String" (up to 30 channels; b1b1c10...)	For this example, enter b1.

CLI>set voice egressTable phoneNumber

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<EgressIndex>	INTEGER (1..32)
<PhoneNumber>	"String" (0..40)	For this example, enter 1111.

Configure the FAX port for phone number "2222."

CLI>set voice egressTable channelList

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<EgressIndex>	INTEGER (1..32)
<ChannelList>	"String" (up to 30 channels; b1b1c10...)	For this example, enter b1.

CLI>set voice egressTable manipulationString

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<EgressIndex>	INTEGER (1..32)
<ManipulationString>	"String" (0..40)	Enter i1.

CLI>set voice egressTable phoneNumber

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<EgressIndex>	INTEGER (1..32)
<PhoneNumber>	"String" (0..40)	For this example, enter 2222.
