QSIG Tie Hunt Group Name Display

[vaoldschl]

Last night I converted my H.323 tie lines from DCS to QSIG a)because my DCS was broken on interoffice transfer and b)because eventually I will be converting to a centralized VM that requires QSIG anyway so there was no point fixing DCS.

Almost everything works great. Using unk-pvt I get my 5 digits and name, transfers carry CLID and connected line within an office and between offices. Stand alone Intuity's get the proper incoming digits and do their magic with name announcements for remote subscribers. I am nearly happy as a clam.

Problem is that when dialing a remote hunt-group the name display doesn't work until the call connects. It displays properly when it does connect (hunt group name) but until answered all that you see is the 5-digit number dialed. I've gone through the docs, tested a few things at my test site but just can't seem to put my finger on it.

We are facing the same issue. From Avaya CM 5.2 to Nortel using Qsig, the name display doesn't work until the call connects.

I don't know if you resolved this but I read a note somewhere concerning this. Try changing "Send Called/Busy/Connected Number: y" to n.

Just a thought.
