Procedure

Run the following command:
voice service voip
Step 2
Run the following command:
modem passthrough NSE [payload-type number] codec {g711µ/law | g711alaw} [redundancy]
[maximum-sessions value]
The definitions of the command parameters are as follows:
For the Cisco ATA ConnectMode parameter, turn off bits 14 and 15. This enables the sending of fax
Step 3
pass-through signals and the detection of incoming fax pass-through signals using the Cisco proprietary
method.
Note
The NSE payload-type number, fax pass-through codec (G.711µ-law or G.711A-law) and redundancy
parameters must have the same settings for the Cisco ATA that they have for supporting Cisco gateways.
