There are multiple databases as well.  I get stale call information from
VOIP.ms as an example, yet current from Broadvox.  There is either multiple
databases, or they don't all update as frequently.

Oops, I meant to send this to the whole group.

My ITSP says that there is no way for them take the caller name we send from
sipx / any IP PBX, and dynamically pass that on to the PSTN side. Apparently
the name mapping is a lot more static than you and I'd like. The CNAM
database is updated manually whenever we request the ITSP. It is a manual
process and could take two weeks, but it really doesn't take that long.

 

So you may have to do this via your ITSP outside the scope of sipx. (or at
least that's what I have been led to believe.) It looks like LECs / CLECs
have the magic key to update this database.

Is it possible to get Sipx to send both the caller's phone number as well as
a 15 character string of user name (or whatever) when placing outbound calls
to an ISP?  Or is there only the 15 character string (which could contain
either text or a phone number)?

 

>From Wikipedia:

 

There are two types of caller ID, number only and name+number. Number only
caller ID is called Single Data Message Format (SDMF), which provides the
caller's telephone number, the date and time of the call. Name+number caller
ID is called Multiple Data Message Format (MDMF), which in addition to the
information provided by SDMF format, can also provide the directory listed
name for the particular number.

 

To say it another way, is there a way that Sipx can send the phone number
(DID) in a way that it will be recognized as such by the ITSP and then
transmitted properly across the PSTN such that normal land/cell phones will
recognize it as the callback number?

 

I realize I will likely have to work this out with my ITSP, but can you tell
me what Sipx can do from its side?

 

Thanks,

 

Jeff
