[asterisk-users] Caller ID to be identical across all lines
I have two SIP lines, 09271xxxx & 09974xxxx , the 09271xxxx is my publicly list phone line which is also my second pick, when i make an outgoing call , I use 09974xxxx, what I want is the caller ID for 09974xxxx to be 09271xxxx to the people I call. The reason is.. when i ring anyone i want them recognise my number (which they will if it is 09271xxxx). I have tried to change the caller ID in the trunk routes there was no differnece, what i do at the moment is sent 09974xxxx calls to the IVR of 09271xxxx but it would be nice to have an elegant solution. Is the caller ID generated at the phone exchange , if so, i probably cannot change it. Thanks in advance - Paul E -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Some let you set CID to anything, some to any DID you rent from them, some not at all. You should ask them what format they want/allow the CID specified -- how many digits, country code, punctuation, etc. If you don't follow their format, all bets are off. -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwards at sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000
