The different ring tones are features of the sip phone/adapter. I dont have any Ciscos, but I do have the Sipura SPA-2000. I'm using ALERT_INFO to set distinctive rings and it works great. But the name of the ringtone is different from the one I quoted for the Cisco: exten => 12,2,SetVar(ALERT_INFO=Bellcore-r3) Is the phone/adapter job to interpret the alert info and play the acording ring tone. If the phone expects Bellcore-dr3, you should send that.
