[asterisk-users] Caller ID replacement

[David Ruggles]

Some googling lead me to this:

Which looks like it has an answer.

Thanks all!

Could you give me an example of how this would look in the dialplan?

I would implement this using the a database (astdb or odbc) containing
the mapping from cell number to extension.  Then for each call that may
need callerid modification, you can check the database for the proper
mapping.  With this method it is also easy to add new mappings.
