Set Callerid For Blind Hookflash Transfers

[bfrank]

I see that for Dial and Conference, VG for Dialogic supports "options" which include setting the outbound caller ID.

 

How can I accomplish the same thing for Blind Hookflash transfers (using RFC 3515 REFER)? I need to set the caller ID to a $RV value.

 

Thanks,

Setting of CallerID on the SIP RFC3515 REFER transfers is not supported at this stage.

 

The REFER message is sent to the originating endpoint of the currently existing call - it's an instruction to that device to place a call (INVITE) to another SIP address instead, so any setting of CallerID would need to be done by the end that issues the new INVITE. Not sure if RFC3515 specification even supports options to tell the originating endpoint on current SIP call as to what CallerID they should be using when they issue the new INVITE to another number.
