1. Introduction
These Application Notes describe the procedures for configuring Sagemcom XMediusFAX
Service Provider (SP) Edition with Avaya Aura® Session Manager and Avaya Aura®
Communication Manager using SIP trunks.
XMediusFAX is a software based fax server that sends and receives fax calls over an IP network.
In the configuration tested, XMediusFAX interoperates with the Session Manager and
Communication Manager to send/receive faxes using SIP trunks and the T.38 protocol between
XMediusFAX and the Avaya SIP infrastructure. The compliance testing focused on fax calls to
and from the XMediusFAX fax server using various page lengths, resolutions, and fax data
speeds.
2. General Test Approach and Test Results
This section describes the general test approach used to verify the interoperability of Sagemcom
XMediusFAX SP Edition with the Avaya SIP infrastructure (Session Manager and
Communication Manager). This section also covers the test results.
2.1. Interoperability Compliance Testing
The general test approach was to make intra-site and inter-site fax calls to and from the
XMediusFAX fax server. The compliance tested configuration contained two sites. Site 2 served
as the main enterprise site and Site 1 served as a simulated PSTN or a remote enterprise site.
Inter-site calls and simulated PSTN calls were made using SIP trunks and ISDN-PRI trunks
between the sites. By using two Communication Managers and two port networks at Site 1, fax
calls across multiple TDM/IP hops were able to be tested. Faxes were sent with various page
lengths, resolutions, and at various fax data speeds. For capacity testing, 100 2-page faxes were
continuously sent between the two XMediusFAX fax servers. Serviceability testing included
verifying proper operation/recovery from network outages, unavailable resources, and
Communication Manager and XMediusFAX restarts. Fax calls were also tested with different
Avaya Media Gateway media resources to process the fax data. This included the TN2302
MedPro circuit pack, the TN2602 MedPro circuit pack in the Avaya G650 Media Gateway; and
the integrated VoIP engine of the Avaya G450 Media Gateway.
2.2. Test Results
XMediusFAX successfully passed compliance testing.
