Introduction

This document describes the solution for an issue observed in Webex Calling where a 488 "Not Acceptable Here" is received by registered Fax devices.

Prerequisites

Requirements

Admin access in Control Hub.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

- Webex Calling

- Control Hub

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Problem

Fax calls do not work because the T.38 protocol is not being negotiated between the Fax device and the Webex Cloud. In this scenario, there is a 488 "Not Acceptable Here" generated by Webex Calling in response to the Re-Invite for the Switchover to negotiate the T.38 mode.

Note: This document assumes that T.38 mode is already configured in Control Hub on the device.
