5.5.7.3 Caller ID
Use the Caller Display Information screen to send (to IP) Caller ID information when a call
is made using the VoIP gateway (relevant to both FXS and FXO). The person receiving the
call can use this information for caller identification. The information on this table is sent in
the H.225 Setup message sent to the remote party. For information on Caller ID restriction
according to destination / source prefixes, refer to Section 5.5.3 on page 92.
You can also configure the Caller Display Information table using the ini file parameter
CallerDisplayInfoX (refer to Section 6.5.9 on page 236).
Note: If Caller ID name is detected on an FXO line (EnableCallerID = 1), it is
used instead of the Caller ID name defined in this table (FXO modules
only).
¾ To configure the Caller Display Information table, take these 6
steps:
1. Open the ‘Caller Display Information’ screen (Protocol Management menu >
Endpoint Settings submenu > Caller ID option); the ‘Caller Display Information’
screen is displayed.
Figure 5-26: Caller Display Information Screen
2. In the Caller ID/Name field, enter the Caller ID string. The Caller ID string can contain
up to 18 characters.
Note that when the FXS module receives ‘Private’ or ‘Anonymous’ strings in the ‘From’
header, it doesn’t send the calling name or number to the Caller ID display.
3. In the ‘Presentation’ field, select ‘Allowed’ [0] to send the string in the Caller ID/Name
field when a (TelÆIP) call is made using this VoIP gateway port. Select ‘Restricted’ [1]
if you don’t want to send this string.
Note: The value of the ‘Presentation’ field can (optionally) be overridden by
configuring the ‘Presentation’ parameter in the ‘Source Number Manipulation’ table.
To maintain backward compatibility, when the strings ‘Private’ or ‘Anonymous’ are set
in the Caller ID/Name field, the Caller ID is restricted and the value in the Presentation
field is ignored.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each VoIP gateway port.
5. Click the Submit button to save your changes.
6. To save the changes so they are available after a power fail, refer to Section 5.9.2 on
page 193.
