Hello All,

Does anyone know how to configure Asterisk to show my name instead of my phone number? Please advice. Thanks.

Have a look at ${CALLERID(name)}.

Eg:

exten => _X.,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=Me)
exten => _X.,n,Dial(SIP/${exten})

This should display the name of the caller on your phone.

You can also set this in sip.conf

callerid="John Doe" <500>
