Explanation of Fields

Alias Address

You determine the alias address.

The alias is the number used at the T.38 facsimile machine
to contact the remote T.38 device. The alias is usually a
shorter number used as a label (alias) for the longer IP
Address.

Example

You work at the home office of a bank. There are eight
branch offices that you communicate with. All nine
locations have T.38 Internet facsimile machines. Each of
the nine locations has a unique, ten-digit IP Address.
When you set up the machines, you assign an alias to each
of the nine IP Addresses.

The alias assigned to the home office is 01.

The branches are assigned aliases 02 through 09.

When you fax to each other using T.38, you use #01 to
connect to the home office, and #02 through #09 for the
branches.
