Asterisk Base CID Translate!

One of the most problem of the Asterisk base PBX faced, when we want to make the Caller ID name and Caller ID Number, with the correct format Number Name, the extensions will get the name correctly from their phonebook. The reason of this project is develop a small core which listen on port 5000 TCP, then if you send the number will return with e164 format (+ country code at the beginning), in case I have this problem with the numbers from Asiatech and Pishgaman in Iran so I made the conditions for the Iranian numbers.

Do Setting

In the FreePBX base system like the Issabel PBX, it is needed to add the CID Lookup Source and for this reason you should do like below: Host: localhost Port: 5000 Username and Password is not needed Path: /lookup/ Queuery: did=[NUMBER]

Then in the inbound route you can add the Caller ID source you created.
