Asterisk Inbound Call Routing

[adorah]

I have an Asterisk machine with several trunks registered with Asterisk based remote machines/providers.
All incoming calls reach one pool destination i.e. Any DID/Any CID. Alas I would like to route calls from different sources (i.e. Asterisk remote machines) to different local destinations, a task seems impossible since FreePBX enables incoming routing by DID no. only and viewing the CLI and the SIP debug it seems Asterisk sends no DID's even not the extension no. that is registered with it.
Any advice on how can I send incoming calls to local destinations without the need to use IVR?

Adorah,

No! Your assumption is wrong here. While DAHDI(ZAPTEL) connections only can see the Caller Identifier by default, almost all the other protocols send both the Called and Calling Identifiers. In fact this is the basis for Direct Inward Dialing (DID) and subsequent SIPConnect specifications..

If you look at incoming routes in the FreePBX menu you will see that you can route calls based on either or both Identifiers.

You need to post a lot more data about your installations and configurations if you think something is broken. An maybe someone will be able to help.
