asterisk users - Jan 2005 - Caller ID spoofing

Hello everybody!

I am having the following problem and since I am a beginner in playing
with asterisk, i can't solve it:

I am trying to  integrate my existing H.323 network in real world
telephony by ISDN cards. The problem is that i DON'T want to change all
e164 numbers in my h.323 network and my ISDN provider doesn't accept
those identities (CIDs). So, i have to spoof the outgoing CID depending
on incoming CID. 

Is there any possible way of doing this by AGI? How? any examples are
welcome.

Also, if i don't ask too much, it would be great to integrate this "CID
translation" table in my existing MySQL database for Asterisk.

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm not sure, whether I've really understood your desire.

I assume romanian ISDN is similar to the german one, and
BRI or PRI connects are bound to a fixed set of numbers.

Manipulation of callerids when forwading calls from H.323
to ISDN or vice versa, taking care of the above mentionned
restrictions, is easily done with an AGI-script and
maybe a (mySQL) database.

Alternatively look for a provider able to accept H.323 and
passing callerids unchanged to PSTN. Of course that provider
will bind you to some regulations in order not to abuse
this feature to spoof callerids!
