Good Morning, I'm having an issue with callerid display when calles are placed _from_ an mgcp device (8x8 ata w/mgcp firmware). Internally, there are several different sip devices and one mgcp device. Calls from any of the sip devices to any other device (sip or mgcp) have name/number displayed properly by the called party's phone. Calls from the mgcp device to any other device display "Asterisk" as the cid name, nothing for number. Here's what I have in my mgcp.conf for the device: [2084728800103] host = dynamic context = westcomllc line => aaln/1 callerid = "Jeremy Jones" <103> nat = no transfer = yes callwaiting = yes threewaycalling = yes cancallforward = yes mailbox = 103@westcomllc When placing outbound calls (out our pstn gateway), I always replace cid name/number w/the main number & name of the company, so that direction it's not an issue -- just internal calls. Anyone seen this & have ideas about what to do with it? Thanks, Jeremy Jones
Try this:
mgcp.conf
[2084728800103]
host = dynamic
context = westcomllc
callerid = "Jeremy Jones" <103>
nat = no
transfer = yes
callwaiting = yes
threewaycalling = yes
cancallforward = yes
mailbox = 103@westcomllc
line => aaln/1

Good Morning,
I'm having an issue with callerid display when calles are placed _from_
an mgcp device (8x8 ata w/mgcp firmware). Internally, there are several
different sip devices and one mgcp device. Calls from any of the sip
devices to any other device (sip or mgcp) have name/number displayed
properly by the called party's phone. Calls from the mgcp device to any
other device display "Asterisk" as the cid name, nothing for number.
Here's what I have in my mgcp.conf for the device:
[2084728800103]
host = dynamic
context = westcomllc
line => aaln/1
callerid = "Jeremy Jones" <103>
nat = no
transfer = yes
callwaiting = yes
threewaycalling = yes
cancallforward = yes
mailbox = 103@westcomllc
When placing outbound calls (out our pstn gateway), I always replace cid
name/number w/the main number & name of the company, so that direction
it's not an issue -- just internal calls.
Anyone seen this & have ideas about what to do with it?
Thanks,
Jeremy Jones

Yup, that did the trick. So order matters there... Thanks, jeremy

So I switched back to > host=ip.ip.ip.ipYeah, that's an issue here, too. We primarily have sip devices, though, at all our customer sites, so it's only a problem with _my_ phone internally, which so far doesn't bother me (I hate talking on the phone, anyway). If I just pick up the handset connected to the mgcp device & hangup, that magic mapping is re-created. I'd love to be able to deploy some of these things, though, for our customers & I really wouldn't like all the maintainance involved in setting up static dhcp assignments for all these mgcp devices & tying addresses to each mgcp endpoint in mgcp.conf. We have, as I mentioned, tons of these mgcp thingies lying around waiting for use. Jeremy
