Cisco Phone. Display Name on dialled number

Hi,

We have a mix of Cisco 7911’s and 7941’s here. When we dial a number it just displays the phone number on screen. When we receive a call we get both name and number. Is it possible to display both name and number on out going calls please?

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Thanks

Version numbers of the phones firmware, Asterisk and FreePBX.

No possible to answer question without this info.

Cisco Firmware: SIP 8.5.2
Asterisk: 11.3.0
FreePBX: 2.11.0

Thanks

Turn on RPID and trust RPID in SIP settings and extension.

Thanks.

To do this do i select “yes” under “SIP sendrpid” in the advanced settings?

I can see the settings in the extensions, is there another place to turn this on please?

Thank you :slight_smile:

true

Thanks again.

Sorry i mean should remotePartyID be set to true in the Cisco XML file. Thanks

The entry in advanced settings controls the default for new extensions. Existing extensions will have to be individually updated.
