Yes, sorry I meant with FreePBX. I realise vanilla Asterisk could do
it, and I wish I could, but that's beyond my capabilities ;=)

Many thanks, I'll have a bash when I get a free hour or three. That
gets slotted into extensions.conf or extensions_custom.conf I suppose?

Would that interfere with/bypass FreePbx's Outbound Routes? If for
some reason Betamax was down, then a second trunk (another SIP
provider or landline) would be used.

OK. I don't immediately see how to achieve this

Sounds a bit like "now don't try this at home now kids" :) I'll have a
tinker with Theo's idea to see what happens - or not..... Cheers

The key is the Set() bit, which sets the CallerID based on the prefix of
the number you've dialled. Theo's example assumes you dial straight out
without pressing '9' first, in international format. So to call
02087654321, you would dial 00442087654321, and because that matches the
pattern '_004420X.', the CallerID for that call is set to
'0044201234568'. If you dial 9 first, change the pattern to '_9004420X.'.

So, you don't necessarily need the Dial() bit. After the Set(), you can
jump into wherever FreePBX does it's dialling [so long as FreePBX doesn't
Set(CALLERID anywhere after you've done it]. If you're going to be
testing this, I recommend you open an Asterisk console and 'core set
verbose 5' so you can see what it's doing.

That's what voiptalker is asking for.

extensions.conf. You'll need some kind of framework around it. I'm
assuming you have some kind of phone connected to the PBX, which you'll have
to arrange to land in that dialling context:

[fred]
....the lines I listed before
exten => h,1,HangUp

The last line above hangs up the PBX phone when the SIP call has hungup.
Let's assume there's a SIP desktop phone which connects to your Asterisk
server, the details of the connection will be described in sip.conf and will
have a line:
context=fred
which means that when someone picks up the desktop phone any dialling will
be passed to the [fred] block above. This tutorial should give you an
idea:

The same goes for softphones, IAX phones or PSTN phones via a linecard.

Perhaps someone who knows FreePBX can comment? It might help to have a look
at what underlying Asterisk rules it generates.

I saw it as how to spoof the CLI so it didn't matter which number he was
using.

I just select which number to dial out on via my PBX. On my system, if you
dial the usual '9' you get a line at random, but if you dial '81' you get
Line 1, '82' gets you Line 2 and so on. A card detailing which prefix to
dial for which outgoing number is fixed to each extension phone, some have
preset buttons programmed.

In any case, it's a solution that works for me :-)

Here is a paste from my extensions.conf

exten => _078.,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=+3531440XXXX)

That works, so maybe you need to use the + instead of the 00 when
setting the CLID?

Cheers, Des.

Does that work with Betamax? I don't doubt that the above setup works with
normal Asterisk installations, but Betamax seem to use a funny way to
indicate the outbound CLID. I think I tried all possible combinations of
the above without success, but maybe I missed something.
