Sending Caller ID (H.323)

When configuring the outgoing H.323 calls from Fax Voip T.38 Console the following should be taken into account:

• By default, Fax Voip T.38 Console uses the top number from the H.323 Telephone numbers list to transmit it to the called party's telephone equipment as Caller ID Number.
• The Display Name, specified for the call, is transmitted to the called party's telephone equipment as Caller ID Name.

To configure default Display Name do the following:

1.     Open Fax Voip T.38 Console Control Panel.

2.     Click VOIP in TreeView.

3.     In the Display Name field enter the Display Name (will be transmitted as Caller ID Name).

4.     Click <Apply> button to save modified settings. Do not forget to restart Fax Voip T.38 Console to operate with new settings. To do this click <STOP> button, then click <START> button.

As for the list of H.323 Telephone numbers, you should understand the following:

• If H.323 ID consists of digits, Fax Voip T.38 Console automatically adds it to the list of phone numbers.
• If you use registration with H.323 Gatekeeper, H.235 authentication is used and H.235 login consists of digits, Fax Voip T.38 Console automatically adds H.235 login to the list of phone numbers.
• Any other phone number can be added to this list. The phone numbers specified in this list are used in the process of registration with H.323 Gatekeeper (the list of phone numbers to which incoming calls are possible).
• By default, Fax Voip T.38 Console uses the top number from the H.323 Telephone numbers list to transmit it to the called party's telephone equipment as Caller ID Number.

Notes

• Sending correct Caller ID Number is not always possible via VoIP network. For this reason, it is sometimes useful to enter a phone number in the Display Name field. It provides possibility to report your number as Caller ID Name instead of Caller ID Number.
