I take it you're not a FeePBX user...

I can enter the CLI for the trunk; any calls going out on that trunk
will default to show that CLI.

I can also enter the Outbound CLI for an extension. This has the effect
of over-riding the default CLI set in the trunk.

This means that I can have all my extensions sending my home number as
CLI yet my sister's extension (remote) correctly sends her home
number...using the same tunk as me.
