Distribution by MSN (Multi Subscriber Numbers

Problem

How to realize MSN distribution with FaxWare over CAPI 1.1, which only supports EAZ?

Solution

FaxWare gives you the option to distribute incoming faxes from a Euro-ISDN port via multi-subscriber numbers (MSN).  
How do you configure FaxWare on a standard S0 so that the TLDīs only react to certain Multi Subscriber Numbers? 
How is it possible to distribute via MSNs?

The solution to both of these questions is easy and efficient. 

First, the root of the problem: 
Even though FaxWare supports the Euro-ISDN standard, the TLD which FaxWare uses is a CAPI 1.1 application.  These TLDīs are by definition only made to work with terminal selection digits (EAZ).  Yet, MSN's are usually made up of more than one digit.   However, because MSNīs differ in the last digit, it is simply used as terminal selection digit (see the following table):

MSN EAZ
9752000
0
9752002
2
9752104
4

This means that:

  1. To distribute incoming faxes, always use terminal selection digits.
  2. To use a TLD for a specific multi-subscriber number (MSN), the parameter DEVICENUMBER (in the TLD.INI ) has to be configured the same as the corresponding EAZ.

This work around allows you to use a maximum of ten different multi-subscriber numbers (MSNs).  This is not a real restriction because once more than ten numbers becomes necessary, direct dial-in (DDI routing) can be used..
