Also, note that some providers expect you to supply the full STD code including the leading zero; some providers expect you to omit the leading 0; while other providers expect you to use the 44 (or equivalent, inbound code for whatever country you live in; in which case you must always omit the leading 0 from the STD code, as though you were calling home from abroad). Begin by sending your ident in the same format that your telco use for incoming calls, but don't be surprised for a moment if they expect something different . -- AJS Note: Originating address only accepts e-mail from list!

Re: [asterisk-users] setting outbound caller ID
You may need to set this up with the web portal of your ITSP. My provider allows both caller ID to be passed in via SIP or alternatively to have a pre-provisioned caller ID to be applied to all calls.

I think what's happening is they have a customer service guy interpreting logs (probably incorrectly). When I had a Century Link POTS line, I had a second number through my VOIP provider that I only used rarely. The VOIP provider was used only as a backup to cover any POTS outages (there were few), and occasionally to make a second call when my wife was already on the line. The VOIP service was very inexpensive (only $5/month plus a small per-minute fee when I actually used it), plus they directly support asterisk use by supporting IAX connections. Then I decided I wanted to save some money, since Century Link was costing more than 8 times as much as the VOIP service, and while I was thinking about this, a problem developed with the internal wiring in the house (I did the demark test to confirm the CL line was OK). Since I didn't want to pay to have the wiring repaired, I moved my main number over to the VOIP provider. Worked great for inbound calls. So now I have two numbers, and didn't want to pay for the extra one, so I dropped the original VOIP number. That's where the trouble started. I want my regular number that I ported over to be the one that shows in caller ID, but the old one that doesn't even work any more was showing up instead. I don't see any way that could be happening unless the provider is supplying it, but they deny it. At any rate, if I can figure out the right way to set the caller ID explicitly, and assuming they honor it if I do, then none of this will matter. --Greg --Greg -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] setting outbound caller ID
Thanks very much for all the responses. I now have a few more things to try. I should have noted that I am using IAX2 rather than SIP to connect to my provider. I do have some internal phones that use SIP to connect to my asterisk box, as well as some corded phones connected through a Digium DAHDI-driven card. I am certain that the old number that is showing up as my caller ID is not present in any of my config files (that includes sip.conf and iax.conf, everything in the /etc/asterisk directory has been checked). A few things I will try tonight when I get home: 1) Turning on iax debugging (don't know why I didn't think of that) 2) Setting callerid= in the outbound dialing context in iax.conf 3) Trying a leading "1" on the number I use in the Set(CALLERID(num) call. Since this is a thread that someone down the road is sure to stumble across, I will post results whether or not I am successful. --Greg -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Set(CALLERID(number)=${var}) works fine for me. Perhaps some debugging on the channel could help? Set sip debug if it's a sip trunk? You'll at least get to see the callerid that Asterisk is putting on the trunk. That might even help your new VOIP provider do some digging if could provide the debugging output.

Re: [asterisk-users] setting outbound caller ID
Set(CALLERID(number)=XX) works here. Also check with your VoIP provider what format they want for the number. (I believe) most accept a 10-digit number, but I seem to remember reading about the odd provider that wanted a leading "1". On Thu, Jun 18, 2015 at 11:47 AM, D'Arcy J.M.

[asterisk-users] setting outbound caller ID
I have found several places where it is explained how to do this, and I have got the following setup, but it is not working (the provider claims they are not getting a proper caller ID setting from me). I have a number of extensions that are shorthand, that I will use one of as an example (real number hidden): exten => 2473,1,Macro(callout,##) Then this (actual number hidden again): [macro-callout] exten => s,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=##) exten => s,2,Set(CALLERID(name)=##) exten => s,3,Set(CALLERID(all)="##" <##>) exten => s,4,Dial(${PROVIDER}/"1${ARG1}",30,tr) exten => s,n,Hangup() I have also tried setting only the number with the same results: exten => s,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=##) exten => s,2,Dial . When I dial that extension, the call goes through, but the caller ID is not correct at the destination. Does this look right? My provider claims that I am somehow sending an old number that doesn't appear anywhere in my /etc/asterisk directory where the config files are kept. I think they are screwed up somehow, but I wanted to see if anyone can see anything obviously wrong with what I am doing here, because unless I can find something wrong with my Asterisk configuration, I am probably going to have to change providers and port my number again (I just moved from a POTS provider Century Link to a VOIP provider).
