Caller-id on Forwarded phone

[jheckart]

I'm on CCM 4.1(2)SR1, and currently, when a user forwards calls to another phone, the caller-id shows the number that the call was forwarded from rather than the actual calling-number.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks.

What are your Forwarded Call Information Display settings on the DNs?

Hi Jeff,

The settings that Mike (good work Mike!) is referring to are talked about in this good Q&A doc;

You can change the forwarding information on a line by line basis. Have a look;

Forwarding Enhancements

Q. Is there anyway that I can on an incoming call show who redirected the call to me?

A. Yes, in Cisco CallManager 4.0, the system administrator can configure the information that is displayed when a phone is forwarded. The following information is available for display: Original Dialed Number (ODN) (Enable); Redirected Dialed Number (RDN) (Disable); Calling Line ID (CLID) (Enable); Calling Name ID (CNID) (Disable). Each of the listed parameters is configurable on a line appearance basis.

From this good doc;

Hope this helps!
