Calling out on line port not working from SP

<< < (2/2)

azrobert:
An inbound call on a SP provides 2 pieces of information, callerid and userid. When you bridge a call the OBi will treat the userid as an outbound number. You need to remove the userid before routing the call to Line.

If your userid is rjdyck change the inbound route to: {>(<rjdyck:>):li}
If you want to check for a specific callerid: {8005551212>(<rjdyck:>):li}

Sometimes the provider will send something other than the userid. You can determine what is being sent by temporarily changing the inbound route to "spx($2@192.168.1.99)". spx must be defined as SIP and the IP address is any random number. Place a call to the SP, wait a few seconds and hang up. The OBi will attempt to bridge the call to the IP address. The call history will show what is being sent.

You can try {>(<@.:>):li} but I'm not sure it will work.

Your transform worked. I had tried something similar (<@.:>:li). I wanted to ensure that any number received by the Obi was not passed on. It was about this point where I started looking a the call history. There were no outbound digits shown yet it still was not working. After your suggestion which was successful, I started looking away back in my call history. ( i'm an Obi newbie, wasn't aware of history ). It turns out that when I had simply LI as the inbound route for the SP the SP's user identity showed up in the outbound history. I don't what purpose is served by this "feature".

To summarize, my transform didn't work but it masked the problem because it didn't show up in the call history. Without the transform the SP user ID shows in the outbound history..

If the syntax you used is in the manual I missed it.

Edit: Sorry I forgot. Thank you so much for taking the time on this.

You can call the OBi with a softphone and bridge the call to a provider passing an outbound number. You point the softphone proxy to the IP address of the OBi and the port number of the SP. These calls are also processed by the inbound call route. The syntax for this type of call is:
{userid>outbound_number:dest}

The same syntax is used with the OBion softphone or OBi to OBi calls.

From the softphone point of view the Obi is the service provider? I assume the softphone should not attempt to register.

Correct

Yes and no. You can't register to an OBi1xx, so the softphone must be able to call without registration.

You can register to an OBi2xx. The parm is "X_Proxy" and it must be enabled (checked). It's found in the SPx Service parms.
