Selective caller ID block on outbound calls 2

[7532]

Has anyone configured a privacy block like *67 in call manager. We are running a 4.2? Thanks

The best way is to set up a separate Route Pattern which blocks CLI such as 9 for allow CLI and *9 to block

What we did was set the CLI as *67 this way it was really easy for users to remember.

we have cm version 4.2 What version did you try this on?

 

[iptuser]

The *9 prefix is any number so yes make *67. I think *67 is on CME only as there is a feature code to stop CLI being sent

We are on ver 4.3 so you should not have any problems

I too would also like to block the caller id on some outbound calls. I tried setting up the route pattern *67 but keep getting busy signals, call cannot be completed as dialed, or in one case transfered over to Unity errors. Can someone who has gotten this to wok please be a little more detailed on the setup?

You cannot send the *67 out a PRI or at least I have never been able to do so. This whole issue depends on where the CLID comes from. If it's an analog port, the CLID comes from the serving providers switch and sending the *67 route pattern probably will work since that is a code given to all analog lines to block CLID. However, if the gateway is a PRI, the CLID can be affected many places, at the DN, at the RP, on the Gateway, at the service provider, etc.
So assuming that you can affect the final CLID from a Translation Pattern, that is where I would block it. Make it like *67.XXXXXXXXXX then inside for the Calling Line ID Presentation option put it to Restricted. Then do the rest of the Translations as what ever you need for your dialing pattern, discard PreDot, prefix '9', etc.

This is all you should need in a route pattern to make this work.

Route Pattern* 9*67.1[2-9]XXXXXXXXX

Numbering Plan* North American Numbering Plan

Gateway or Route List*: Your Gate Way

Route Option: Route this pattern

Call Classification*: offnet

Prefix Digits (Outgoing Calls): *67

Calling Line ID Presentation: Restricted

Calling Name Presentation: Restricted

Discard Digits: PreDot

To place a blocked ID call, Caller will dial 9*67 before the number, hope it helps.

What I meant by the "The best way is to set up a separate Route Pattern which blocks CLI such as 9 for allow CLI and *9 to block " is to configure a new route pattern with a different prefix can be *9, *67 etc any number which is different to the route pattern which is normaly used to route your calls out. Configure to route in thE nomral way i.e use predot to delete the new prefix and set up CLI restriction on either the CCM GW page or in the H323 GW
