[Freeswitch-users] Caller ID using Fifo

[Marc de Corny]

Just to follow up on this subject.

I have done a lot of testing on the fifo trying to get the caller_id_name
changed on the outbound call to the agent and to be honest I cannot
understand the explanation.

If mod_fifo does not know which call it will connect until the agent
answers, how come it displays the CLI correctly, jsut won;t let me change
it.

Still seems strange. I am looking into the Mod_callcentre to check if it
sends caller_id information. but the same logic if valid could apply

Also maybe someone should change the Wiki ( I would but do not have enough
expertise on the subject) because the following is a bit misleading

 "Note: If you wish to specify the caller ID presented when a fifo calls an
agent, set the origination_caller_id_name and origination_caller_id_num
variables to the values desired. These could be set within the {} of the
dialstring, or they could be set using the set application in the dialplan
which places the caller into the fifo (before the 'fifo in' executed on the
caller). "
thanks
