<div dir="ltr">Sorry to revive an old thread, but running into a "new" snag in this, at least something we hadn't considered before.<br><br>I set up internal caller-ID masks per below, normally everything is fine. But we've discovered that if a secretary transfers a caller in to the person who's number is supposed to be masked, their true number is displayed on the calling party's IP Phone as the connected number. Don't ask me how we've missed that one for the passed 4 years.<br>
<br>I've changed my translation pattern to restrict the "connected line id presentation" which did the trick.. but it totally scewed up their voicemail now. If a masked party calls someone and gets forwarded to voicemail, they get Unity's opening greeting rather than the called person's mailbox. When i look at the call viewer in unity, it looks like the forwarding number is blank. What would the connected party line ID of the caller have to do with the forwarding number?<br>

I never noticed the "Restricted" setting on there (or didnt realize what it was for). A lot of the users request that their secretaries numbers show up instead.. but for the ones that just what "Private" that would be quite a bit easier to just reuse one. Thanks!

Right, I missed Ed's statement of "and of course, all masked as<br>something different" :-) As Lelio mentioned the easiest way is to<br>Restrict the Calling Line ID and Calling Name (if appropriate) in the<br>
Translation Pattern. There is no easy mechanism to change the Caller
<br>ID on a phone by phone basis. One could write a script to query a DB<br>and mask the Caller ID based on the source of the call. This way only<br>the DB would need to be updated. To make it seamless all internal<br>
calls should be intercepted by this script but it could be built so<br>only those phones that need to mask the Caller ID are intercepted.<br>Building a system that would be robust enough to handle the call volume<br>might be a challenge and potentially costly.
<br><br>I would agree that having the ability to restrict the Caller ID info<br>from the phone would be best. Interesting changes would be the ability<br>to restrict the ID and Name and also an Internal Phone Number Mask.
<br>Not sure if either of these are on the roadmap.<br><br>Kevin<br>On Apr 4, 2006, at 10:06 PM, Lelio Fulgenzi wrote:<br><br>> It's basically a new partition (and everything else) for every<br>> modified mask you want.
