We use the phone number as the username, that is definitely one solution.
However, if your SIP ATA's support Remote-Party-ID and your SIP/PSTN gateway
does as well, it *should* use the contents of that header for the caller id
information.

Hello,
I have a question regarding caller ID currently I am catching some flak
because when ou outbound calls ring to the PSTN
they see ,for instance SER username is 6013, 6013 on their caller ID. How do
you handle this to show a valid inbound number on a user by user basis. We
have a couple different people that use our server for outbound termination
only they want it for instance to show
888-555-1212. Is there anything I can do to force ser to show a fulle
telephone number instead of a user.
I was thinking of changing their username to be the phone number they want to
show up but is their another way?
