Hey; We built a pretty extensive fax server and part of what it does is check to see how many fax sessions we currently have. We use that to determine how many new fax sessions we are able to start sending.

AFAIK, when asterisk receive a call, it select extensions based on the received number and when it detects fax, jump to the fax extension. now when should i use these show commands to detect fax and how should i tell asterisk to execute fax extension? this is a big problem for me, so i really appreciate if you help me to solve it. yours, SAM On Wed, May 20, 2015 at 7:11 PM, Tech Support <aster...@voipbusiness.us> wrote: Hey; Yes, I’ve also seen that 5 second delay with our fax server and it drove me crazy. How I solved it was by doing a “core show channels <concise|verbose>” and detect if there was a fax transmission going on. Doing it this way shows up instantaneously without any delay. Like so: mte6*CLI> core show channels concise SIP/SIPRoutes-00000054!faxserver-tx!fax!11!Up!SendFAX!/var/spool/asterisk/fax/documents/faxadmin/default.tif,dfz!!voipbusiness!!3!4!(None)!1432132315.97 mte6*CLI> core show channels verbose Channel Context Extension Prio State Application Data CallerID Duration Accountcode PeerAccount BridgedTo SIP/SIPRoutes-000000 faxserver-tx fax 11 Up SendFAX /var/spool/asterisk/fax/d 00:00:10 voipbusines (None) 1 active channel 1 active call 62 calls processed mte6*CLI> core show channels Channel Location State Application(Data) SIP/SIPRoutes-000000 fax@faxserver-tx:11 Up SendFAX(/var/spool/asterisk/fa 1 active channel 1 active call 62 calls processed All of these outputs shows that there is a fax transmission taking place. I hope this helps.
