Please, forgive my ignorance but could you elaborate how your system
would be working ?
I've read a lot about fax and Asterisk but I'm not sure I exactly got
it (specially with iaxmodem and hylafax integration).
Do you mean that :
1. incoming calls would be routed according callee's extension
(extensions are dedicated either to fax or voice applications) and
only with that rule ?
I'm in a test environment at the moment, we've got a few clients that do
large number of faxes. I'm testing with one of them.
The machine is a Celeron 2.4ghz with 512MB memory, running Mandriva Linux.
I've installed HylaFAX from source along with iaxmodem and Asterisk.
iaxmodem is a software modem that uses the IAX protocol and registers to
Asterisk as an IAX client allowing HylaFAX all the resources of the
Asterisk PRI or whatever allows connectivity.
HylaFAX's faxgetty program monitors the 23 iaxmodems that I run for
incoming calls.
On an inbound call (Being sent via our Definity G3) all caller
information including DID is seen by HylaFAX and I can route to either
printer/pdf or anything else via the FaxDispatch script.
On an outbound call, HylaFAX sees the 23 iaxmodems as normal modems.

2. you would exclusively connect existing fax machines to SIP ATA's
and hope offering users the ability to fax from software applications,
would decrease SIP ATA's use inconvenients ?
We are currently trying to reduce the number of fax machines that we
have. Hoping to centralize these functions in a multi-function server.
We don't deal with ATAs.
