asterisk users - Jun 2005 - Looking for PRI Outbound Caller ID Configura tion

As an employee in the technical operations of a CLEC this information is easily
obtainable by anyone that has access to the Class 5 switch servicing that PRI...
A Q.931 trace in the Class 5 Switch will tell the whole story....

If the above doesn't seem to work, the next step that I'd take is to
have the central office tech's trace a call for you. They _can_ do that.

The last pri that I implemented had similar problems, and it only took a few
minutes with the right people on the phone to resolve it. Getting to the right
person in the CO tends to be a problem in some cases. (In my case, they swore up
and down things were configured correctly on their end. But after a couple of
traces they found one of their switches was dropping callerid info.)
