Specify Origination Phone Number for Toll-Free calls
$outbound_tf_ani phoneno
This command is used to specify the origination phone number for outbound calls. It is used only when the dialed number is marked as a toll-free number using a configuration file $phone_mask command.
This value may also be overridden by assignment to the OB_TF_ANI system variable.
The parameters on this command are used as follows:
| phoneno | the telephone number to be sent as ANI, without spaces or punctuation. The special code X suppresses the outbound ANI if this is permitted by the telephone company. |
For Diva, the X may be followed by a number which will be inserted as the calling number but coded as restricted.
For Copia VoIP ports, X followed by a number (or specifying Anonymous in the variable VOIP_SET_FROM_NAME) will cause the number to be set as the P-Asserted-Identity, visible to the telephony service provider but not sent to the remote party.
For Commetrex BladeWare SIP, the value default is supplied in the CFSIP_CALLINGNUM variable set by OTFCONFIG . The values from this command and from system variable OB_TF_ANI replace the part between the 'sip:' and the '@'.
If the dialed number is not marked as a toll-free number on a configuration file $phone_mask command, then the $outbound_ani command, or OB_ANI value, is used instead of this value.
See the Phone Mask Examples topic for examples of the masks used to identify toll-free numbers.
Hardware Issues: supported PRI boards and VoIP only.
Default: The number allocated to the phone line by the telephone company, if a physical telephone line is attached.
Example:
$outbound_tf_ani 1234567890
