[asterisk-users] Cisco Gateway sending call to * without CID Name

[Adam Moffett]

So lemme get this straight:

PBX <-----PRI ------> Cisco2600 <--------SIP--------> Asterisk

Any reason not to eliminate the Cisco?

Either way, as a workaround you could add a Set(Callerid(name)=Your 
Name) to the asterisk dialplan
