[asterisk-users] Set ringtone by dialed number

[Josh Hopkins]

The reason for this is we have one primary company office but there are two entities and if someone call the Denver number it would be for 1 organization and would ring differently helping our staff remember how to answer the phone for the Denver organization rather than for the Colorado Springs number which is a different entity.   A lot of times people are rushing to answer the phone and do not look at the callerID this would give them and auditory reminder of how they need to answer the phone.

How would I go about setting up telling the phone to change the ring tone in the SIP header?

If the phones you are using allow the ringing tone to be changed by sending a
SIP header, yes.

But why would anyone want this?  What is the point of changing the sound that
your phone makes when someone calls you, depending on who you called last?

Would it be possible to set the ringtone based on the number that was dialed?

Example of what the goal is:
                Dial Denver number
Incoming calls ring with ringtone  1

Dial main number
Incoming calls ring with ringtone 2

We are currently using Digium D40, D50, D70 phones.
