Need help with CDP

[Strize]

Hi Everyone,

Im new to these forums, as well as telephony PBXs. I've been thrown in a position to administer a CS1000E and CC6 setup at work. Up until now I've been able to make easy changes like new/chg sets, create cdns/acds, and play with the clid entries.

I do have the nortel core documentation for cs1000e, and i've read the section on CDP front to back. I'm afraid my lack of pbx knowledge is getting the best of me on this one.
There's a lot of terms that are referenced, which i am very vague on, and have yet to play with trunks.

Here is what I need to setupMay be through CDP, not 100% sure)
Right now when making an outgoing call, the user needs to dial 9 for external then the number. It then displays the number from the clid entry programmed on the scr key they use, along with the CPND NAME.
What I need to somehow figure out is how to setup around 10 different dialing codes(Example 941,942,943,944...), which will allow an external number afterwards. The only difference in between these would be the outgoing call display that is broadcasted to the receiver of the call.
This will need to override the clid programmed on the set as well.

If I dial 941########## it will broadcast 50655555555 as my caller id when dialing the number.
If I dial 942########## it will broadcast 50644444444 as my id when dialing the number.

I've decided to post up on these forums, after trolling around and seeing all of the great minds in here.

If anyone could help me with this, or understand this a little better, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

From a PBX standpoint, the CLID displayed to the far end is based on the CLID table associated with the KEY DN used to make the call.

I can't think of a way to display varied caller ID unless you use different keys to place the call.

Maybe someone knows a workaround -

Here is the best CLID documentation

We are using 3904/3905 sets here.

If it was only 4/5 difference outgoing numbers, I would have done it that way for sure, since im pretty comfortable with it.

I've seen a type of setup some time back with the "dialing codes" method, although I am not sure if it was cs1000. Just was given a non technical rundown at the time on what it does.

One other thing to add, is tthat we have access to make changes through Element Manager, if anyone knows how to do it that way.

This is on a PRI environment

only other way I culd think to do this would be to have different CLID being sent by your Telco provider on different routes.

Had one customer that did this.
If they dialed 9+ sent out DID
If dialed ACOD + would send out the Telco provided CLID
they had 3 different routes they would do this with sending out 3 different CLIDs

Hypothetically,

Couldn't you config your dialplan to recognize those digits, setup a DMI to translate to a phantom dn, terminate the call locally to a phantom, and have that phantom dcfw to acod+number using the CLID you want?

I've not ever tried, but it makes sense in my head anyway

It does make sense - I've tried that - I wish it would have worked. The system knows the call is coming from your DN though.
