[cisco-voip] forward-digits or caller-id

[Vince Loschiavo]

There are several places you can set this. 

What you want to set is the external phone number mask. 

Where you set it depends on your setup. 

However I would recommend you set this at the phone level or directory number vs route pattern or gateway. 

This affords you more control as the customer grows. 

So, let's say Bob's number is x1234. And his full 10 digit number is: 212-555-1234.  So on Bob's phone, set his external phone number mask to:   212555XXXX 

This will prefix his did with 212555. 

And you can use BAT to do bulk changes.

Subject: [cisco-voip] forward-digits or caller-id

I am a bit confused. A new phone company for a client of mine is telling
them they need to pass 10 digits to them, where as now they are apparently
only passing 4, thus callerid to outside users is showing up as only the
last 4 digits. My question is, is this accomplished by setting the caller-id
= local on the ephone-dn or is this accomplished by forward-digits 10 (or
all) on the dial peer for the 23 channels of the PRI?

Thanks

Curt
