Adtran has been installed for years and two weeks ago, faxes through adtran fail.
Every once in awhile a few get through.
My customer only receives faxes.
the path is: 2 sip trunks > 908e > isdn > customer equipment > customer fax
I only have access to the 908e.
from the sip trunks going toward fax:
Sdp= m=audio 10158 RTP/AVP 0 8 18 101
908 toward sip trunks:
m=audio 10004 RTP/AVP 18 101
but I don't get the re-invite for t.38
It looks like to me that we are receiving a disconnect from the isdn.
Does anyone know what the stuff in green bold is?
Thanks in advance.

The g.729 codec is compressed and doesn't support fax. Configure your codec for g.711, also consider adding "modem passthrough" to the configuration. Additional detail here: Configuring and Troubleshooting Fax and Modem Calls in AOS
Hello Micahel,
Did switching the codecs resolve the issue with faxing?
Thanks,
Geoff
hello, this was working for 6 years and the configuration hasn't changed. the call is established via 729 and there should be a re-invite to t38. but the re-invite wasn't happening. I did change it to modem passthrough via the gui and disabled t38. faxes are working. thanks for your help.
Thanks for the feedback. You definitely want modem-passthrough ON whenever you are faxing over a voice user or trunk. Part of the green messages show the call being disconnected from the PRI point of view. If you are ever needing to debug SIP to PRI, run these debugs:
debug sip stack message
debug isdn l2-for
debug voice verbose
This will show you all 3 call legs and you can get a better idea of why the call/fax fails. If the ADTRAN config didn't change, maybe something in the network was upgraded/changed that altered the call flow.
Regards,
Geoff
