You have to use the variables in that line that sets caller name. I don't remember on top of my head which. You can use the dialplan application called "info" which will give you a nice list of useful variables and other information on the call and the channel.

Hi,
can someone help me with passing caller ID to FreeSwitch extensions please?
I have a Linksys SPA-3102 setup to receive PSTN calls and Caller ID has just been configured on the line. The Gateway is setup as Extension 1000 with Dialplan entries <variable name="effective_caller_id_name" value="PSTN Line"/> <variable name="effective_caller_id_number" value="1000"/>
I have a group name (primrose) setup (in directory\default.xml) to ring a number of phones I have extension 100 configured with <variable name="callgroup" value="primrose"/>
The Gateway is setup to dial extension 100 on an incoming call
When a call comes in, the Gateway sees the Caller ID, e.g, 07751234567
And FreeSwitch see the caller ID from the gateway :-
[NOTICE] switch_channel.c:669 New Channel sofia/internal/07751234567@192.168.1.181 [f863c03f-0f7e-4e4b-beb0-dfa57dad2b50]
When the group extension ring, the caller is shown as "PSTN Line" on the extensions.
Can someone tell me how & where I can modify the config to pick up the CID from the Gateway and pass it to the group extensions please ?
