Native Cisco Control Hub Integration

Imagicle Digital Fax can be integrated to Webex Calling MT architecture by leveraging "Customer Managed Devices", pointing to Imagicle UC Cloud Suite instance through a Secure TLS 1.2 SIP Trunk.

Requirements

  • Imagicle UC Cloud Suite must be in place, with proper Digital Fax license

  • Webex Calling MT environment should include as many Workspace licenses or Webex Professional licenses as the number of fax numbers to be handled

  • Webex Calling MT environment should include the Phone Numbers (DIDs) to be assigned to Imagicle Digital Fax to receive and send faxes.

Configurations on Webex Control Hub

Please access to Cisco Webex Control Hub as Location Administrator and go to Calling ⇒ Numbers to verify unassigned phone numbers to be used as fax numbers. Please take note of those available DIDs you wish to associate to fax. See below screenshot:

Now go to Account ⇒ Subscriptions and verify that you got enough licenses (Professional or Workspaces) to support all required fax numbers.

Configurations on Imagicle UCX Suite

On Imagicle UCX Cloud Suite, please define a user or a fax group for each configured fax number. See here.

Moreover, the IP routing for outbound faxes should point to the correct Imagicle Public SBC.

Please access to Imagicle web portal with admin credentials and go to Digital Fax ⇒ Advanced Settings ⇒ IP Routes and set the "Default Route" field according to your regional macro-area:

  • Europe: 172.32.9.136

  • Middle East: 172.32.1.86

  • North America: 172.31.128.157

Once IP routes have been properly set, you must restart the service from Digital fax ⇒ Manage Service menu.

If you are accessing an existing installation, you might find different IPs for EU and USA (see below). Just leave them as they are, unless Imagicle suggests you to change them:

  • Europe: 172.31.9.136

  • North America: 172.30.128.157
