So I'm still trying to get this to work... (I'm top posting, but the details

I'd like Asterisk to detect incoming faxes and redirect them elsewhere. The
details aren't important, as long as I get the detection working.
I've added this to my sip.conf file. Probably overkill, but I'll tune it once
it works:
[general]
faxdetect=both
This will have no effect; see below.
My sip registrations are all in a Mysql RT database, so I added this column to
my table:
faxdetect char(3) default 'no'
I've set faxdetect to 'yes' for the devices that I expect to be receiving fax
calls.
'faxdetect' is not a chan_sip configuration option (unlike chan_dahdi).
It's a feature that can be enabled on a channel via the CHANNEL()
dialplan function. In the dialplan itself, you'd use something like this:
exten => 1234,5,Set(CHANNEL(faxdetect)=yes)
To do this in a configuration file, so that it will be applied to
channels as soon as they are created, use 'setvar':
[peer1]
setvar=CHANNEL(faxdetect)=yes
I'm not sure how this would be done using Realtime configuration, but it
should be possible. I'd encourage you to test it out using a
non-Realtime peer first, just to make sure that it works the way you expect.
