58 • Configuring Fax lines GFI FAXmaker for Exchange/SMTP Manual
, After making any changes to the FAXmaker Lines/Devices
configuration make sure to restart the FAXmaker FAX Server service
for the changes to take effect. Then Check the Fax Server Monitor to
make sure that the lines have been initialized.
Finding out the exact MSN numbers
A frequent error is that the MSN number on which GFI FAXmaker
should answer is specified incorrectly. The exact MSN number that
you should enter depends on the ISDN configuration. The best way to
determine the number that you need to enter is the following:
1. Go to the GFI FAXmaker monitor node in the GFI FAXmaker
configuration.
2. Send a fax to GFI FAXmaker, dialing the number that you want
GFI FAXmaker to answer.
3. In the FAX Server Monitor, take note of how the number is being
displayed.
4. Enter this number in the Msn number list in the Device tab. After
you have entered the number and restarted the GFI FAXmaker fax
service/application, GFI FAXmaker will now answer the call.
* If you want GFI FAXmaker to answer a whole range of numbers (for
example, if you are using DID routing), just enter the starting number
of the range of numbers. For example: to instruct GFI FAXmaker to
answer all numbers 35922410 up to 35922419, enter 3592241.
