Multiple Media Gateways
The Port Server can be configured to send faxes via multiple media gateways. This is a registry setting. Note that
these settings can only be used with media gateways that do not require authentication, as per‐gateway
usernames and passwords cannot be specified.
Navigate to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FaxBackPortServer\IP_FAX].
Remove the existing key
sip_remote_ip_address
. You may now add the following keys:
sip_remote_ip_address# = (string)
IP address or hostname of each media gateway.
sip_remote_device_count# = (string)
Number of ports present on each media gateway.
Where “#” is an incrementing number starting from 1. For example the first device will have both
sip_remote_ip_address1 = “10.0.0.100”
and
sip_remote_device_count1 = “24”
; then the second device
will be
sip_remote_ip_address2 = “10.1.0.231”
and
sip_remote_device_count2 = “24”
. This will allow the
port server to use 48 ports spread across two gateways.
These entries will be used in a first‐in‐first‐out basis. Device #1 will take all calls up to its limit. Only when there are
more calls in progress than it can handle the Port Server will move on to Device #2.
