hide calling number

[jhill803]

Is there a way to not display the ext number when calling station to station (internal)

You cannot hide the calling number internally but you can block the other phones from being able to call back.

interesting!, I had this question also!
how does it work?
is there a way to hide numbers, so that they are not visible in the corp.directory?

You can hide them in directory by taking them out of it. Just delete the entry. This is assuming you are using LDAP internally and not AD.

Whycap,
you mean: if we use LDAP, I can delete all entries, because we do a lookup in the AD?

Do you know if that works also with Extension Mobility (we use that for 98% of the users)?

Do you know where to find a whitepaper to implement this (with CUCM6.1)

It could be nice for us, if it integrates with EM.
thx

No if you are using AD then you will need to hide it there. All you do with 6.1 is a lookup from cucm and using the AD credentials. Call manager has no rights to right, delete, add or hide anything in AD.
That is why i said if you are using LDAP natively.
The thing is if you are using AD, even if you hide it in call manager the user can be found in outlook or any other app using AD as a directory lookup.
You can hide the use in separate OU that is not accessible by any of those apps and create an app in ccm for that specific user which are hidden from corporate directory by design. However at that point all the login for that user will be local to ccm.

Just to clarify this is for hiding calling name and not calling number.
