[asterisk-users] Using server side phonebook directory with SPA941

[Maxim Veksler]

Hello list,

I got a couple of those "wouldn't it be great questions", as following:

1. Is it possible, with asterisk to hold a central phonebook directory
of callers?, so that when this party calls a "textual" caller ID will
be displayed on the phone display.

2. How can this be configured with Trixbox, I've looked at the
configuration options - I assume it plays no difference me basing it
on mysql or astdb?

3. What protocol does the phone (Linksys SPA941) talks to the
asterisk server to retrieve this information ?

4. Has someone done this? What softphone should I use to test it first
(I'm connecting it with outlook, so it has to be win* software)


Thanks for helping,
Maxim.
