[Asterisk-Users] Outgoing CallerID on PRI problems

[Robinson Tim-W10277]

Some telcos require you only to send a certain number of digits.  Try
sending fewer and fewer digits and see if it starts working.  E.g.
instead of sending 1601abcdefg try sending 601abcdefg or abcdefg or defg
or even fg

If this doesn't work, from the CLI type pri debug span x and see what
you get in the SETUP message.

Other possiblities are in zapata.conf - you may need to set the correct
parameters for your type of PRI.  Best thing might be to ask your telco
how your line is configured.

Please report back with success/failure.  We all like to hear of
people's successes as well as problems!

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Outgoing CallerID on PRI problems



For outgoing calls made on our PRI circuit we are setting the Caller ID
using the format

Exten => _9XXXXXXX,1,SetCallerID(1601XXXXXXX)

The monitor shows that the CallerID is being set to the specified
number, but yet when the call is received on the user end the ID is
always the base number of our DID.  For example we have 8600-8650 as
DID's but the callerid is always 8600 regardless of the extension that
makes the outgoing call.

We have tried using the variable SetCallerID(${BYEXTENSION}) but still
get the same results.

Any suggestions?
