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

What about showing the Caller ID after it is answered? Any way to do that?

Joćo Leme,

The caller id is not passed when the phone is ringing because mod_fifo does not know which call is going to be sent to that channel once it is answered until it is really answered. I don't know if mod_callcenter does show anything but you should consider looking at the documentation if you really need this feature.

Hi there,

I would like to know if there is a way to see the caller ID on my Sip Client (X-Lite for example) of the caller that I answear from a Fifo queue?

Thanks,

John
