Provider with ANI
First scenario
Automatic Number Identification for provider is used ONLY (at least we don't know any other situations) when provider gives you some access number after which (IMPORTANT!) after which dialer enters destination number WITHOUT PAUSES. E.g. WHOLE number is sent to provider instantly.
Explanation:
- Let's say provider gave you access number 1234
- When somebody wants to dial some destination, lets say: 22234567890, he enters on his phone: 123422234567890
- 22234567890 from provider comes to your MOR box
- Because Provider is with ANI, we are checking user's CLI
- If CLI is found - we know which user is dialing
- Before he dials out, we change CallerID of this call by CallerID found in our database - that's minor job, but it's part of algorithm
- After that call is sent to 22234567890
IMPORTANT!!! - Do not check ANI for Provider if this description does not match your working scenario!
Similar scenario which can't be used with ANI for Provider
If you have access number as DID, you can enter p(pause) after your DID calling to the provider and then enter destination. But that's totally different scenario. It should be configured with DID + Auth. by ANI DialPlan, because destination is send to MOR by DTMF, not by provider as in previous example.
Example:
If your DID is: 234567890 and you want to dial dst: 987654321 in your mobile phone (example) you enter:
234567890p987654321
That way call will reach MOR, when p (pause) is reached - MOR will play "please enter destination" and 987654321 will be sent by DTMF to MOR.
