Re: [Asterisk-Users] CAPI, transfering thru a 2nd PBX - keep original CallerID

2004-01-05 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi!

 I want to have Asterisk as my gateway to the outside world and use 
 another PBX to connect my existing phones.
 exten = ${OUTSIDEMSN},1,Dial,CAPI/${MSN2NDPBX}:${EXTEN}
 How do I transfer the caller Id information initially coming in?
 
  I have strong doubts that this can be done at all. One way would be to 
 [..]
  Besides: I suppose your ISDN PBX (which brand exactly?) supports CLIP (or 
  comes with an internal S0 bus) and you have an analog CLIP phone (or ISDN 
  phone) connected?
 
 Thanks for pointing out your workaround. It is a feasible solution for 
 times when the computer is near the phone, most of the time, the phone 
 is away.

The alternative is to patch chan_capi to your needs, or ask kapejod to do 
that for you.

Cheers, Philipp

I have strong doubts that this can be done at all. One way would be to 
set your ${MSN2ndPBX} to ${CALLERIDNUM}, but that would require that 
capi.conf has that CALLERIDNUM listed as one of the valid outgoing MSNs. 
Since you won't know in advance who'll call that'll be a problem - also I 
don't think you can reconfigure capi.conf in the midst of processing a 
call...

Besides: I suppose your ISDN PBX (which brand exactly?) supports CLIP (or 
comes with an internal S0 bus) and you have an analog CLIP phone (or ISDN 
phone) connected?

Workaround: See my last posting and other very recent discussions 
concerning a simple tool that shows the current caller ID and name on 
your PC using either Flash, HTML or Java. Or use astman/ gastman. 
As of now I am storing the caller data through AGI in mySQL and display 
that on a web page that the user needs to re-load manually when desired.

Cheers, Philipp

Correct. It would save me from buying FXS cards. (The PBX is a Gesko 
2108 Office).
