Pass DID Between 2 FreePBX server

[fgunno]

I hope someone can help me with that:
My Situation:
I have 2 FreePBX server,
FreePBX1 have a trunk from our provider and receive the call first, FreePBX1 have a couple of extension configured.
FreePBX2 have a trunk from FreePBX1 (one of the extension of the FreePBX1)
Inbound route of FreePBX1 to Extension linked to FreePBX2 and everything work fine.
But Now I need to setup 2 Inbound route on FreePBX2, and the problem is that the DID is not passed thru FreePBX1 to FreePBX2 so the DID Specific inbound route is not working on FreePBX2.
I make it work with a Set Caller ID on FreePBX1 and a CID Inbound Route on FreePBX2, but the problem is the redial or notifications on the phone show the CID number and don’t show the real Caller ID.

What I want is to pass the DID from FreePBX1 to FreePBX2 directly. So Inbound Route on FreePBX2 will work as expected.

Thanks!

What is the best way to connect multiple FreePBX together?

The subject was raised earlier about CID issues with peer trunks. Since it has come up recently for me, I thought I would share a bit of wisdom. We all know that extensions have two CID numbers, the local extension number for internal calls, and the Outbound CID for PSTN calls. When a call leaves the system, only one CID is used and which one depends on whether the outbound route is configured as intra-company or not. The other CID is lost unless steps are taken to preserve it. The following ma…
