Supporting Fax Communications over the Internet
نویسنده
چکیده
The Internet’s use as a faxing medium allows users across continents to communicate without incurring the high costs of long-distance phone rates. Geographically dispersed servers connected to local Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN) circumvent the use of international lines by using the Internet in stead. This paper proposes an integrated Internet faxing environment, known as FaxPortal, to support different modes of Internet faxing including the use of email, the World Wide Web, and conventional fax devices. FaxPortal's architecture comprises two servers, namely, the Faxing and Fax Receiving Servers. The Faxing Server accepts and converts fax messages into faximage files for transmission over the Internet. The Fax Receiving Server receives these files and sends them to fax devices over the PSTN. Additionally, FaxPortal has adopted a scheme with three different transportation classes to simplify the support for global fax coverage.
