asterisk users - Oct 2004 - MFC/R2 Argentina variant ANI problems

I'm trying to get ANI info without succes in the Unicall channel. Apparently
(as told by the PBX technical support), Argentina R2 implementation of ANI 
request needs a different answer than the current UniCall support. When 
Asterisk receives a 0x5 (ANI request) it must answer with an 0x1 and then 
the individual digits of the actual extension number (601 in my case). 
Unicall only answers the extension number, generating a protocol error.
Also, when the call is established by asterisk, ANI request isn't generated 
at all.
Of course, I'll try to fix the mising 0x1 myself, at least if I find where 
to add the extra digit :) Any help appreciated.

Guillermo

Hi Guillermo,

The reason I don't send ANI when I get a 5 for .ar protocol is the 
information I have says something different :-) It says that when I get 
A5 I should respond with the calling party category, which I think I do. 
The current code seems to work OK against a Dialogic card in .ar mode.

R2 documentation is somewhat unreliable in various countries. I will try 
to sort this out at the weekend. I have an update I am trying to finish 
off, with various fixes in it.

Steve
