SIP line identity (in) options

Option

Description

Default

Use only numeric portion

Determines whether only the numeric portion of the caller ID is displayed. If this option is selected, then all other information is removed.

For example:

• If this check box is selected, the caller ID appears as 3178723000.

• If this check box is not selected, the caller ID appears as sip:3178723000@123.45.67.89.

Notes: If you do not select this check box, then CIC's telephony services do not change the inbound address and extension before the dial plan standardizes the address. The address appears in this format: sip:8723000;ext=999@inin.com.

If you do select this check box, then CIC's telephony services changes the inbound address and extension before the dial plan standardizes the address. The address appears in this format: (317) 872-3000 ^ 999.

If you do select this check box, and if the user portion of the SIP address is not numeric, then the entire SIP address is used as the caller ID.

Selected

Called Address

Designates the local selection method.  

The options are:

• Use Request URI: displays the destination address in the form <sip:counsel@acme.com>.

• Use 'To' header: displays the "To" field in the SIP header as the called address (the destination address).

• • If the field contains both a URI and a display name, then both of these items are displayed. For example, "Patty Johnson" <sip:counsel@acme.com>.

  • If the field contains only a display name, then it is displayed alone. For example, "Patty Johnson."

Use Request URI

Use this diversion info if present

Displays the diversion information, such as the original or most recent line value. This information is contained in the URI address field in the SIP message.

When this option is enabled, you can select the following values:

• Use most recent

• Use original

Not selected

Calling Address

Designates the remote selection method.

P-Asserted-Identity is a header field in a SIP message that contains a URI and display name (optional). For example, "Patty Johnson" <sip:counsel@acme.com>.  

The options are:

• Use 'From' header only: displays only the "From" field in the SIP header as the calling address (the origination address).

• • If the field contains both a URI and a display name, then both of these items are displayed. For example, "Patty Johnson" <sip:counsel@acme.com>.

  • If the field contains only a display name, then it is displayed alone. For example, "Patty Johnson."

• Use 'P-Asserted-Identity' header only: displays only the authenticated sender origination information from the SIP message. If the "P-Asserted-Identity" header information is not available and no value is set in the header, then the number appears as “Private number,” and the name appears as “Unknown Name.”

• Use 'P-Asserted-Identity' header then 'From' header" (default): displays the authenticated sender information from the SIP message.

• • If the "P-Asserted-Identity" header is known, then that value is used and then the "From" header information is used.

  • If the "P-Asserted-Identity" header is unknown, then only the "From" header information is used.  

Use 'P-Asserted-Identity' header then 'From' header

Ignore address if user portion is not numeric

if the address is not numeric (for example, <sip:counsel@acme.com>), then this option sets the From field to "Unknown."  

You can optionally use this option with the Use only numeric portion check box. Either way, the CIC client displays the call as "Private Number.”
