I use a different ITSP but never have that problem with callerid but am not using 4.1.7 in production but I have it and will test tomorrow. Currently forwarded calls display the callerid of the calling (PSTN) party.

I'm using version 4.1.7-018309 and Flowroute as my ITSP (through sipXbridge). From the Flowroute FAQ: We transmit Caller-ID based on the presence of one of the following header fields in order of preference: "P-Asserted-Identity", "Remote-Party-ID" or "From:". On the Flowroute gateway page, I have "Use default asserted identity" unchecked with the "Asserted Identity" field empty. On regular outgoing calls, everything works correctly. In the trace, I see that sipX sends the Caller ID using the "From" header, and the ITSP user name is sent using the "Contact" header. I have user 201 configured from the sipX user portal to forward calls to my cell phone. If I call 201 from extension 202, the call goes to my cell and I see the caller ID configured for extension 202. The problem is with calls originating from the PSTN. sipXbridge sends the following "From" header to Flowroute: From: "sipxbridge" <sip:xxxxx...@sip.flowroute.com<sip%3axxxxx...@sip.flowroute.com> >;tag=4023757721964266966 The "X"s represent my ITSP user name. The result is that my cell phone receives my ITSP username as Caller ID. If I check "Use default asserted identity" on the gateway configuration page, the result is that sipXbridge sets the original (correct) Caller ID using the "From" header and sends the ITSP username using "P-Asserted-Identity." However, because of Flowroute's Caller ID policies my cell phone still receives the ITSP username as Caller ID. Now, having read the Caller ID page on the wiki, I suppose that Flowroute's handling of Caller ID is outside the norm. I am confused as to why sipXbridge will send Caller ID using "From" on regular outgoing calls and forwarded calls from an internal extension, but not on forwarded calls from the PSTN. Is this a sipX bug or am I screwed because of Flowroute's (apparent) abnormal handling of Caller ID? If the latter is the case, is there any work around? Thank you for all help. I hope I explained that so that it makes sense. -- Christopher _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-users sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
