[Asterisk-Users] Matching Caller ID against a database of knowncallers

[Peter Braidwood]

Hi,

I use a simple script to query a 2 table's in a MySQL database. This is called using AGI.

The first one has got about 200 rows in it each one is a caller ID number and a name. If I get a match then I set CLI to "name <number>"

The second table has over 10,000 rows in it. It has all the telephone exchanges in the UK in it with the prefixes for the exchange. If I haven't found a match in the first table then I search the second one and set the CLI to "area name <number>"

Doing this has no apparent delay to the call.

Peter
