changing Caller ID for outbound calls

[dtasia]

Just want to check if something is possible (I’m not sure anything is, but just how it is implemented).

Customer has domain setup in Vodia.  Using Yealink 6 x T46s and 2 x T42G/S

Customer is adding another brand to the company and wants to ensure when they answer/call out, they are going via the correct branding.

For the inbound calls, we can setup a new ring group so that it would ring 3 out of the 8 extensions.

But for outbound calls, could we setup a BLF key that as predefined outbound caller ID so that it has a different outbound caller id to the normal/default number?

It would be using the same trunk.

Branding means that they present a certain caller-ID for outbound calls (ANI)? That is for sure possible. There are many ways to achieve this, depending on what they need. Inbound is relatively easy - all they will need is to assign DID numbers to the extension. In 64, there is a new page specially for this task.

Any examples of how to set this up for outgoing calls. Please advise and example and your scenario and what needs to be set up.

Set the ANI for the Agent Groups - then log into one of them and (by default) it should then use that ANI for the call. Check the logs on how this is passed to the trunk. By default the {from} pattern in the trunk will use this ANI.
