Re: [hylafax-users] list

I have the inbound DID ananlog trunk on one modem.

I also have two modems setup for outbound.

The VSI fax server supports this configuration and works well.  The only problem is that it doesn't have a working web interface.  This is why I'm still looking for a enterprise fax solution that works.  I've heard great things about the Hylafax solution.  I was just hoping for support on the inbound side with my current hardware configuration.

Thanks

Well, I have never seen a Modem bank or for that matter a modem that supported DID trunks.  Also how many faxes do you plan to have come in with 1 trunk and 100 numbers?  Are you planning to be able to send faxes as well?  A typical DID installation is 2 to 4 trunks for 20 to 50 numbers.  But of course it all depends on the traffic.  DID's are also tipically in-bound only.  There are some "two-way" DID configurations but only when they are on PRI.  I assume that you are fimilar with how DID functions and how the signaling is controlled.Jason

No PBX.   Just a 2-wire analog trunk with 100 DIDs.  I need to route faxes based on the last three digits of the DID.

Hi Brandon,   As far as DID support,  I would think that you would need to terminate the DID trunks into a PBX/Key System first, then bring out seprate S/L extensions to a bank of modems. One modem per DID number or a hunt group per DID number if you need multiple modems per number. It will result in a rather large bank of modems.  You could possibally get away with a modem-bank to connect to the PBX via PRI but that's getting into some major money.If your PBX has the capibility of transmitting the DID that was called via CID or ANI... then you could send calls to a bank of modems and route using CID.  I personally have never seen DID information transfered via CID on a S/L port before though.Another other option would be to find a modem bank that accepts DID trunks, although I've never seen anything like that (but I'm sure it exists somewhere).Good luck!
