asterisk users - Jul 2003 - What does "callerid=" in sip.conf do?

Hi

since "callerid=" in sip.conf doesn't set the Caller ID, I suppose
it
must be there for some other reason.

Is this a not-yet-working feature for future releases of Asterisk?

If not, what does it actually do?

thanks
regards
bk

For me it's working. In my sip.conf I have:
[messenger]
typen=friend
callerid="Messenger" <111>
...

And when I make a call from messenger, in the called
phone I can see 'Messenger' on the display...And if I
comment the callerid line, there is no name on the
display.

Regards
cmayor

callerid = name <number>

This does work perfectly on my system...

Works perfectly over here.  My guess is that the calls you make with
that phone aren't coming in over the user / peer-entry you're expecting,
for some reason.
