[Asterisk-Users] CLI and DNIS presented to Analog extension

[Peter Jenkins]

My company is based in Australia and we have a need to be able to
present CLI (ANI) and DNIS to an analog extension. Currently our PABX
vendor is saying they can only deliver CLI between the first and second
cadence. 

The system will collect calls via an aggregate of ISDN PRI services from
the PSTN and then direct them to the analog extensions in a hunt group
configuration. It is important that the analog extension be presented
with DNIS information as it needs to know who the call was originally
intended (another system is connected to the analog extension). I have
been told that you can get CLI+DNIS to an analog extension direct from
the carrier in the US however this is unfortunately not available in
Australia.

I am getting some headwind from my organisation about the possible use
of Asterisk which is based around the fear of the unknown. If anyone is
aware of this configuration being used with Asterisk then I might have a
chance of at least getting them to let me test the configuration.

Thanks in advance.
