What happens if asterisk receives a T.38 call? Will asterisk pass it thru?

I've seen a few ATA devices that support T.38 and I'm wondering what happens
if a fax is sent thru one of these ATAs into asterisk.

Maby I have the terminology wrong. Is T.38 a protocol like SIP or is T.38 a
compression like G729 using SIP?


Right now it does not get handled. I think it looks like an unknown codec.

SIP is a signalling protocol. T.38 is more like a cross between a codec (e.g. G.729) and a transport (e.g. RTP). It defines its own UDP or TCP messages (although a proposal for using RTP as the transport exists). It defines a scheme for demodulating the modem tones, send their contents through the transport, and remodulating out the other end. If an endpoint is within a computer the demodulating and remodulating is skipped, and you get a T.38 package like the t38modem add on for OpenH323.
