Yes, this is possible of course with the Eicon Diva Server PRI (T1) card.<br>This card provides a CAPI interface where you can connect Asterisk(with<br>chan-capi) and any other CAPI based application like Hylafax.<br><br>
You can e.g. configure chan-capi to use 20 channels and the remaining<br>channels configured in Hylafax.<br>When you use a Eicon Diva Server with DSPs on board, you don't need to worry<br>about CPU power, because fax-receive is done on the DIVA card.
<br>So you don't need to 'bridge' something here, it just works.<br><br>Armin</blockquote><div><br>Armin,<br><br>Do you mean you could dynamically share E1/T1 channels between Asterisk and Hylafax applications ?<br>For example, for each incoming call to a given fax number, Capi driver would trigger Hylafax software to process incoming fax and at the same time, Asterisk software would be smart enough to use other channels for outgoing calls ?
<br><br>If this understanding is correct, what is the downside ?<br>Why don't everybody use chan-capi ?<br><br>Regards <br><br>Olivier<br><br></div><br></div><br>
