Compressed codecs are not appropriate for faxing; fax
transmissions are themselves compressed and don't tolerate
further compression; moreover, most compressed codecs are lossy
and a fax transmission will not tolerate losses. This is one of
the major reasons why faxing over VoIP remains

yes brings us to modem
detection:Now we are going to probe the tty port to figure out the type
of modem that is attached. This takes a few seconds, so be patient.
Note that if you do not have the modem cabled to the port, or the
modem is turned off, this may hang (just go and cable up the modem
or turn it on, or whatever).
Probing for best speed to talk to modem: 38400 OK.
About fax classes:
The difference between fax classes has to do with how HylaFAX interacts
with the modem and the fax protocol features that are used when sending
or receiving faxes. One class isn't inherently better than another;
however, one probably will suit a user's needs better than others.
Class 1 relies on HylaFAX to perform the bulk of the fax protocol.
Class 2 relies on the modem to perform the bulk of the fax protocol.
Class 2.0 is similar to Class 2 but may include more features.
Class 1.0 is similar to Class 1 but may add V.34-fax capability.
Class 2.1 is similar to Class 2.0 but adds V.34-fax capability.
HylaFAX generally will have more features when using Class 1/1.0 than
when using most modems' Class 2 or Class 2.0 implementations. Generally
any problems encountered in Class 1/1.0 can be resolved by modifications
to HylaFAX, but usually any problems encountered in Class 2/2.0/2.1 will
require the modem manufacturer to resolve it.
If you're unsure and your modem supports it, use Class 1.
This modem looks to have support for Class 1 and 1.0.
How should it be configured [1]?
Hmm, this looks like a Class 1 modem.
Product code (ATI0) is "spandsp".
Other information (ATI3) is "www.soft-switch.org".
DTE-DCE flow control scheme [default]?
Modem manufacturer is "spandsp".
Modem model is "IAXmodem".
Using prototype configuration file iaxmodem...
The modem configuration parameters are:
ModemResetCmds: "ATH1\nAT+VCID=1"
Are these ok [yes]?yes.no, since we don't need to configure any further
modems. The second question is confirmed with by pressing

general section.
In this example we are binding the standard IAX2 port of 4569. The
bindaddr defines the IP address (and thereby the interface)
on which the IAX2 channel driver listens for connections; in this case,
it is set to listen on all interfaces.friend, which allows both
incoming and outgoing connections. The secret and
port parameters match those in the IAXmodem
configuration we did above, and context defines
the entry context for outgoing connections.iax2 show peers in the Asterisk console
