I want most outbound calls to not transmit caller ID. I have added a dial rule for the relevant trunk which looks like:
*67+.
It works. I know this could (should?) be done with the prefix dealie - but here’s the catch…
Sometimes we want to transmit caller ID. Our people are used to dialing *82 to show caller iD, so…
*82|.
*67+.
If I’ve read the dial rules tool tip properly (for the last 50,000 times it’s popped up) only the first rule should be matched. That being the case, the *82 should be stripped and the rest of the number should be passed. Otherwise, a *67 will be prepended to the number.
Am I right in my approach? If so, why is this not working? If not, please clue me in.
