Setup Flow for Offramp Gateway
This equipment can be used as a Hub Station to forward E-mails — from your client computer or Internet
Fax device — to any facsimile on the public switched telephone network.
For example, the document can be sent to this equipment from out of the country through the Internet,
then the document can be sent from this equipment to the designated fax number through the local public
telephone line.
The Offramp Gateway feature is available only when the optional Fax unit is installed.
When enabling the Offramp Gateway, this equipment works as an SMTP server to receive E-mails from
the Internet. To enable the SMTP transmission in this equipment, the hostname (or specific domain) that
relates to this equipment must be designated using the DNS server. Then designate the MX record and
configure the SMTP server to route the E-mails received. If the hostname of this equipment is designated
as “host1.ifax.com”, it is set to transfer the E-mails to this machine when an E-mail to “<account
name>@host1.ifax.com” is delivered.
