Accept any caller ID

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hi

First of all I apologise if this is something simple (and already discussed) problem, I may just not know the correct terminology.

I have an asterisk setup and need to allow users to be able to register with a username and password but have the caller ID different from their username. Mainly so they could send different caller ID’s for billing purposes through the same authentication.
When I change the caller ID on the SIP client at the moment, I have done a trace and it appears to change the URI(?). It will then not register with asterisk.

I hope this makes sense, any help is greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Leo

Have you researched the AddSIPHeader command? Asterisk is sort of picky about how things register and reregister, but I think what you’re wanting could be accomplished by changing the SIP header on an established call.
