I've posted a couple times about wanting multiple extensions on a phone to support incoming and outgoing calls on a separate number. I've also read through several requests about this and I still am not sure where things stand.
Right now I have numbers hosted with Twilio and I'm able to setup two SIP trunks. I'm migrating everything to Bandwidth.com... or thinking about it. Problem is I can only have 1 sip trunk. They will show caller ID coming from the PBX. I created an outgoing rule with pefix 8 and it kidna worked. I could see in the log that it found the outgoing rule but twilio rejected it.
But that's with two SIP trunks that have Caller ID set from the side of the carrier. How would I make this work with one SIP trunk? I don't see where in an outgoing rule I can rewrite the outgoing caller id based on a prefix...
I'll just take this opportunity to add I really wish I could do this the way Switchvox did. On switchvox, I could assign as many Extensions to a phone as I wanted. The extensions would work individually and for the end user, it was easy as dialing a number and hitting the extension they wanted to dial out of. It also made viewing incoming calls very easy as you knew right away what the call was for. Then on the extension I would configure whatever CID number I wanted.
