David Lesher put this into my mailbox:
I would not be surprised if the caller's phone number were logged, most modern modem banks talk ANIS and DNIS, which if I'm remembering correctly is basically caller ID. doesn't seem to be an extra charge to get the data from the telco.ANI. Actually, it's commonly CNID, which is slightly more useful.Just want to make sure all parties here do not think ANI == CNID. They are different critters. You get CNID usually. Real time ANI is available on 800 trunks, but at a cost.
I realize this is probably something one learns in Telco 101, which I haven't taken, but if CNID == Caller ID, wouldn't ANI be *more* useful? Or does CNID report the number regardless of Caller-ID blocking on PRI lines/etc? (I'm assuming that CNID == standard Caller-ID as it appears on POTS, and that ANI == the special service that 800-lines get that *always* reports the number, regardless of blocking..if I'm wrong, I'll accept the LART.) -dalvenjah -- Dalvenjah FoxFire (aka Sven Nielsen) College is a fountain of knowledge...
