caller id on pri

It can be done in the PRI Programming using number to send.
It's a bit tricky however, and there is one major caveat.
If you have extensions that ARE NOT D-I-D's they won't be able to dial out.
It would work like this:
Let's just say you receive 3 digits from the CO for your D-I-D's (For example 100 to 199)
The DID Numbers are 214-787-5 100 to 199.
The number to send would bet set to:
Base Number with Ext.
And the number would be:
214785000
That should do it.

A correction to the above: when using the Base Number with Station, if the Station's number is NOT a DID it will get sent anyway! Thus the called party will get an INVALID Caller ID on their phone. The outgoing call still completes. Just the sent CID is incorrect!
Example: DID numbers: 213-555-2300 - 2399
DID Station 2313 places call to 311-555-2368 called party sees 213-555-2313 on their phone.
NON-DID Station 2411 places call to 311-555-2368 called party sees 213-555-2411 on their phone. Obviously if they tried to call that number they would get whomever it was assign to or not, but they would not reach station 2411.
This is a problem Avaya NEVER fixed! They really dropped the ball on the PRI CID issue...

Actually, I have experienced call denied conditions with a "NON-DID" extension. I believe the carrier was Qwest, but it could have been someone else.
In that respect yes, if the provider is "screening" the Numbers-to-Send, one not in the DID range for example, the call may be denied. Here in California, Pacific Bell(AT&T) does not screen or block anything. That's where I did my original testing on PRI and the CO switch is a 5ESS.
The best thing to do is check with the service provider to find out what their policy is when ordering or working on PRIMARY ISDN. This should one of a number of items on your check list.
Hope that clarifies the matter...

The PRI info is as follows:
Slot 3 Switch: Legend-PBX Point to Point
Slot 7 Switch: DMS100
System: By Extension Base #:
B Chan Group 1 Slot 7 NetwkServ Call by Call
Incoming Routing By Dial Plan
Channel ID 23 Down to 1
Line 833 - 855 Phone #: Number to Send:
B Chan Gr 80 Slot 3 Network Serv: Elect and Ntwk
Incoming routing: Directly to UDP
Channell ID 1-10 Line 805-814
Didn't try call from another station to check caller ID
info.
Also trying to retain current DID's on point to point that
have different NNX and numbers. Any ideas?
Switch is a Merlin Legend R6.1 in case I didn't mention
it before.

Your base number should be 6512895680. No dashes or wild cards.
Good luck

The plot thickens! I did not realize there are two PBXs networked together. This is one of the major limitations with the Legend/Magix CID Base Number + Station. You can only have ONE NPA-NXX-. So all your DID numbers have to share the same NPA-NXX or the above would apply from my earlier post, and there may something related to the Dial Plans of both PBXs that comes into play here also, not knowing what numbers or ranges you have on the other PBX.
You might want to review the Network Reference document for the Legend and print or review the Dial Plans of both systems to get a better idea as to what you have here. I see that you are using 10 channels of the DS1 to the other PBX with a PRI configuration.
I don't think you can WILD CARD any of the digits in the Base Number + Station, but you can try it and see what you get. Besides using a cell phone for the CID recipient do you have a POTS line with CID for testing? It won't hurt to experiment with those options, depending on what restrictions, if any QWEST may have on the Number to Send from the PBX.
