Analog faxes wait for a dial tone prior to send the called party number. Despite this the terminal adapter sends a setup message when hooking off the phone receiver (without called party number information element). If the routing tables of the SmartNode are configured such that any called party number is accepted no dial tone will be sent to the fax which means that the fax never sends the called party number dialled. Make sure that the routing tables are programmed such that a dial tone (continuous tone signal) is generated.
