Getting Better Caller ID
Hello,
We use Asterisk and as per book we use MAC addresses as user names. So, when call coming in from outside (SIP trunk) – caller id is good.
But when users calling each other on extensions – they see MAC addresses. How would I make it so we see actual names instead of MAC addresses? Without changing users..
Thank you, Ivan

Do you have a line like the following in your sip.conf for each user?
callerid=”Name Here”

This is true and any SIP phones can be configured to pass a configured Callerid value when dialing out. This can be different from user name.
