Another CName Solution

I don't know if this was previously suggested on the forum. I did some searches and couldn't find anything.

I already had PBX in a Flash installed under Vmware on a Windows machine. I was able to add CName to inbound calls to my OBi110 using PIAF. Here is what I did:

Routed inbound calls to PIAF by changing SP1(GV) InboundCallRoute to:
SP2(2001234567@192.168.1.100:5060)

2001234567 is my OBi110 number, but you can use any number.
192.168.1.100:5060 is the address of PIAF

I defined a dummy extension using FreePBX and changed the Dial parameter to:
SIP/robert@192.168.1.110:5061

192.168.1.110:5061 is the address of my OBi110

I added an inbound call route:
DID Number = 2001234567
Source = Superfecta
Destination = the above dummy extension number

Inbound calls are routed to PIAF
Superfecta does the CName lookup
The call is routed back to the OBI110 with CName

Maybe I'm missing something here, but what you are suggesting here make no sense.  PIAF has native GV support, which happens to be a better implementation of GV than the OBi device, so you would simply set up the OBi ATA as an extension on the PIAF, which would provide the CNAM information when the calls are routed to that extension.  The PIAF GV implementation allows for incoming calls to ring for more than the allotted 25 seconds native ring time maximum.  So you could have an incoming GV call ring for 30, 40, 50, 60, etc. Seconds.
