I doubt it's possible but I'll ask just in case there's a "legal" way to do that. I have an asterisk server setup at work. When someone call from a PSTN line and enter an extension it rings for a few seconds on the SIP phones of that extension and then if there's no answer it transfer the call to the cellphone of the person having this extension using hook flash and then hang up to free up the line once the call has been transfer. My question now. Is it possible to forward the Caller ID of the person that called to my cellphone instead of having the phone number of my company displayed on my cell? Thanks Martin
Not with an analog POTS line. You need a PRI, or a SIP provider to do that. hth -----Original Message----- From: Martin Roy [mailto:mroy@mac.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 3:58 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Caller ID forwarding I doubt it's possible but I'll ask just in case there's a "legal" way to do that.

Not, on your question - but you brought up something I would really like to do and I was told it wasn't possible. how do you do the transfer to cell phone with the hook flash.

this should work: -call comes in -you answer with a ZAP FXS device -you hook flash -dial a valid internal extension or if your dialplan permits it dial an outside line (if you have > 1 FX0 port or PRI) If you have a PRI you can arbitrarily set the caller ID in your dialplan -hang up. Caller is transferred. -If you flash instead of hanging up, you are 3 way bridged with the caller. I tried it last night on my home * box and it worked (tdm400 card) I looked into DTMF based transfer and management functions last night and they are quite weak in Asterisk - you really need a SIP phone to do it correctly. But I saw a post from -dev that someone has a patch for 1.2.5 to improve this. hth -----Original Message----- From: Tim Litwiller [mailto:tim@litwiller.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 8:37 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Caller ID forwarding Not, on your question - but you brought up something I would really like to do and I was told it wasn't possible. how do you do the transfer to cell phone with the hook flash.

To answer your question on how I do the hook flash transfer here it is :
in the globals section of extensions.conf put all your cell phone
number like this :
[globals]
MartCell=5141234567
Then add this macro in your extensions.conf :
[macro-cell_user]
exten => s,1,Playback(Call_Transfer)
exten => s,2,Flash()
exten => s,3,SendDTMF(${ARG1})
exten => s,4,Hangup()
Finally here's how my extension is configure :
exten => 24,1,Dial(SIP/24,8)
exten => 24,2,Macro(cell_user,${MartCell})
What it does actually is when someone dial 24 (the extension I put in
this example) it rings the SIP phone for 8 seconds and if there's no
answer then do the macro.
The macro actually play the file Call_Transfer that I recorded. It
says something to the caller like : One moment please we are
transferring your call. Then it does a hook flash, dial the cell
number and hangup once the call is pickup.
Hope this help
