[Asterisk-Users] Syntax for hiding caller ID but still passing ANI?

[John Todd]

OK, I can understand that, and I suppose that your answer perhaps 
indicates that there is currently no method within Asterisk that is 
easily accessible that permits such tagging of outbound PRI calls.

Putting such a patch or feature together is beyond my ability. 
Ultimately, I'd like to set this flag from within the dialplan 
somehow such that the call is flagged with that option upon creation. 
I suppose I'll put this on my little pile of things that would be 
nice to have, but I can't afford.  :)

I did a little digging, and found that there is even an RFC Draft for 
SIP extensions for privacy that translates to PRI signalling, which 
would be nice to have, though certainly all I'm shooting for is a 
flag to set in the dialplan (through a SetVar command maybe?)

Anyway, if anyone gets ambitious about handling it, here's the 
well-written Cisco documentation on how they implement a version of 
it:

SIP Extensions for Caller Identity and Privacy

It seems that there are two options that block the presentation: 0x23 and 0x21
