Inbound CallerID Remap

Overview

Inbound CallerID Remap allows you to set the Caller ID of external calls on a number-by-number basis.  This is useful for phone numbers that don't have caller id associated with them, that may call into your organization with frequency.  It is not possible to use this function to differentiate between people who call from a hidden, private, or unavailable number.  However; if you wish to block calls from such numbers it is possible to do so, contact your System Administrator for assistance.
