asterisk users - Nov 2006 - Amending CLI in Dialplan

Hi All

 

I am not sure what I wish to do it possible but I would like to see if you
guys know any better.

 

I have a site who has the extensions: 1231, 1232. 1233, 1234

 

Each of these users can dial each other on the extension number an also has
an external CLI mapped to them.

On all internal calls or calls to services such as call forwarding their
Caller ID is: Name <XXXX>

 

What I would like to have happen is have the Caller ID changed to the CLI
only when they make an offnet call.

So what I am saying is I need to match an extension to a CLI and reset the
Caller ID.

 

Many Thanks

SP

If you do the selection wether a call is offnet or not via a "dialout
prefix"
(for example "0" + the outward number to call), then the following
might
help:

exten => _0.,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${CALLERID(num)})
exten => _0.,2,Dial(Zap/blahblubb,${EXTEN:1})

This would set the CALLERID-name to the number, e.g. 1231.
If you need to map other numbers, you could e.g. use the Asterisk DB()
feature. From the console, put the external numbers to use:
database put mapexternal 1231 9811231
database put mapexternal 1232 9442332
(you get the point). Then

exten => _0.,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=${DB(mapexternal/${CALLERID(num)})})
exten => _0.,2,Set(CALLERID(name)=${CALLERID(num)})
exten => _0.,3,Dial(Zap/blahblubb,${EXTEN:1})

would map the internal CALLERID to an externally valid number. Be sure
to specify the external number in a form that your PSTN line will accept
(e.g. in Germany, ISDN numbers have to be specified without area code).
