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.

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.

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?
