similar to: Caller ID Question

I'm sure this was asked before, but I can't seem to make this work... If a customer dials one of our DIDs, and the operator transfers that call to another employee, the Caller ID doesn't seem to do what I would expect it to. I would expect it to show the original caller's ID. Example: John calls in from the outside using (213-555-1234) and he calls into the asterisk system

Not sure if this can be done or not, but I can't seem to find it anywhere on the Wiki. When dialing interoffice with Asterisk 1.4.2, I would like to have the caller id of the person I am dialing displayed and not the number I just dialed. Is this possible? So, if extension 4023 is John Doe, and I dial 4023, my display should read John Doe and not 4023. I am using a Polycom 501 by the way in

We have the caller id with name option enabled with our provider, however, our polycom 501 phones will only display the number of the incoming call. Is there a way to see the callerid name from the cli when the call is coming in (like a print in the dial plan)? I'm not sure if the problem is with asterisk or our phones. I did turn on the calleridpres option in zapata, but I'm unsure what

We are trying to use a softphone from a location that is behind a firewall. We are using x-lite as the softphone. So far, we've been able to get the phone to register with the asterisk server, and it can receive voice from the asterisk server (IE, voicemail, etc). However, asterisk can't hear anything from the softphone. We have used 2 different machines to test this on. We are watching

i'm trying to set up outboud caller ID on 3 polycom ip 500 phones. here is how i have them set up. each phone is using 2 lines, all registered to * phone 1 line 1 is registered using the DID, and the next 5 lines reg to 03152 03153 03154 03155 03156 from my understanding, the way the polycom configs are set, i have to put the 03152 in the reg.x.address field. and it seems that is where

I know how to remap a key on a polycom 301 and 501.... But does anyone know of a list of mapping keys? For example, the Do Not Disturb on a 301 is #23. I got that one by just guessing though. Thanks, Rob

I'm sure this has been discussed many times, but I have a question about hoteling. My understanding would be this: A phone sitting on a desk. A user hits 9000 and it asks what extension you'd like to become. You type "1001" and then it asks for your password. You type 1234, and it says you're "logged in". You now are accepting calls at your phone and you're

This is not necessarily Asterisk specific but if I have Polycom 301/501 and 601s and want to dial a missed call back, how do I prepend a 9 - can I do this via the polycom config? I can't find anything in the docs. Bill -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

When I bought two Polycom 501 SIP phones, I naively thought they were Power-over-Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) because they were "powered over ethernet." Silly me. Polycom must have some odd voltage or funny way of injecting the power, because the POE switch I bought for them (Netgear F@510P) won't power them, though if I use the Polycom-supplied AC adapter and ethernet power

Thanks! Do you have any suggestions on what I might do next. I have the phones, I have asterisk, and I have everything setup. But i can't get the login to work with the Polycom function. Nothing happens...and I can't find any readmes' or manuals. Regards, Jan -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Fr?n: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com

I'm trying to duplicate a behavior we had with our old avaya system, and I've come across Auto Answer (Ring Answer). However, its not quite the same yet. Right now, when I dial **5053, it will add the SIP header for Ring Answer and it will call 5053. The phone auto pickups just fine. However, we need that call to be muted. If you were to call into a meeting, we wouldn't want them to

Somebody was helpful enough to give me the very latest release of Polycom's firmware (2.1.0). Unfortunately, I still get that issue. So I'm stuck asking again: Anybody ever got that?

I have four Polycom 330 phones connected to an asterisk system. There are other VoIP phones connected too. All of the extensions are four digits beginning with 11. From any of the phones, except the Polycom, picking up the handset to call extension 1103 for example works fine. With the Polycom 330, as I press the second 1 of 1103 it stops taking input and gives me an error. I tried

Use Set(CALLERID(num)=9999999999) instead of using CALLERID(all).

Anyone know how (or if it's possible) to get a logo on the screen of a Polycom 501? I've been looking around for hints on how to do it but so far nothing would indicate Polycom supports doing it. -bill

I have a question - if a user calls up w/ blocked caller id I get the following on my phone Incoming call from asterisk This is the same on my Cisco 7940s and Polycom phones. For average users this is not intuitive at all.. I'd like to configure this so if I deploy this at a customer site it says "caller id unavialable". With the spelling done right.... Any ideas on how this

I'm running Asterisk 1.2.8 with Polycom ip501's xten softphones The only problem I'm experiencing is the following: I can't seem to get blind transfers to work with my Polycom 501 phones Either through the feature code or the soft keys.
