Hi,<br><br>1. Can you explain what RDNIS is when it should used with Asterisk ?<br>I've read this <a href="http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/RDNIS">http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/RDNIS</a> but I'm still wondering if I should use it.<br>
<br>My understanding is:<br>when dialing out through an ISDN line, Asterisk is sending two numbers (using signalling channel) :<br>- one is CALLERID(num) which is supposed to be whatever the Asterisk admin whishes to be,<br>
- one is CALLERID(rdnis) which is supposed to the RGN (see above link).<br><br>Is Asterisk sending something else ? (the reason, ...)<br>Is this correct ?<br><br><br>2. I'm facing a strange issue with an old 1.2 Asterisk (bristuffed).<br>
My setup is:<br><br>PartyA <----- ISDN ----> Asterisk <--------ISDN----><-----Whatever ----> PartyB<br><br>During off hours, Asterisk forwards incoming calls to an external party (called PartyB in my drawings).<br>
Depending on the number of PartyB, PartyB's hardphone is either displaying the PartyA's number or Asterisk's lines number.<br>For instance, if PartyA's number is 0123456789 and Asterisk's number is 0987654321, if PartyB is my cellphone, <br>
I can read the call is coming from 0123456789 (PartyA).<br>I PartyB is someone else cellphone, when PartyA calls Asterisk, he would read 0987654321 (Asterisk's number).<br><br><br>I'm trying to understand what is happening.<br>
In every case, in my diaplan, after answering PartyA's call, and before dialing PartyB, I've got a CALLERID(num)=0123456789 line.<br><br>How would you explain some cellphones display one number and some the other ?<br>
<br>Regards<br>
