Subject: [asterisk-users] callerid and user on voicemail
Hello,
There is a problem that i can not figure out how to solve.
I got users with 5 digit usernames for sip.
Some users has a callerid for outside calls.
I have such problems
When a user activates (for ex) call forwarding, System creates that entry on
database as CFIM/callerid not the username,
So this rule works only if a call is made from outside to the callerid. Not
the local calls made to username.
Or, if that user dials *97 and tries to enter voicemail, voicemail
application looks for callerid instead of username , so it can not find it.
And got similar problems in some other applications too.
So, how can i make to use callerid only for outbound calls, or to forward
incoming calls to local extensions.
This won't completely solve your questions, but here are some tips. #1.
You can define a different callerid than the user-id in sip.conf. For
example, your user 12345 may look like this
[12345]
Type=peer
Context=default
Add this line
Callerid="Joe Cool" <5551212>
#2. *97 is just a dialplan line like this:
Exten => *97,1,voicemailmain(${CALLERID(num}@default)
You can either do some error trapping or use ex-girlfriend logic like this
Exten => *97,1,noop(new *97 logic)
Exten => *97/12345,n,voicemailmain(1000 at default)
Exten => *97,n,voicemailmain(${CALLERID(num)@default)
Hope this is useful.
