PH> The dialplan command 'setcallerpres' is also good. Please don't toppost, it makes quoting hard. Anyway, setcallerpres has the disadvantage for SIP that the number is not sent at all. This means that the upstream provider cannot give the number to emergency services. In the regular phone network, CallerID is always sent, but showing it is suppressed just before it reaches the final destination -- unless the destination happens to be e.g. emergency services. SIP does not have a standard way to achieve this. We encode the information in the caller name, but it would probably be better to use a custom SIP header. setcallerpres works very nicely for PRI lines though, it sends the CallerID but suppresses showing it. Precisely what is needed for emergency services. /Benny _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
