UseFromContact

   
 

Description

This parameter allows you to toggle a switch to change SIP messaging for outbound calls, and routing for inbound calls. It determines whether or not to use the DN or an Alias Name specified in the DN Channel Map.

  • For outbound calls, the username in the From and Contact headers will use whichever value is specified here, Alias Name or DN.

  • For inbound calls, the To header will be compared against the Alias Name to determine routing to a specific line or channel.

Guidelines

Valid settings are as follows:

  • 0 - Use DN - Use the dialed number in SIP messaging (default).

  • 1 - Use Alias Name - Use the Alias Name specified in the DN Channel Map.
