Title: Nailed It!!!! How to block incoming calls based on caller ID
Post by: ralph on April 25, 2015, 01:39:22 PM

I've nailed it!  It can be done!!!   I've now done it and tested it!

I had so many request over the years to be able to block certain incoming calls based on their caller ID that I can't count them.
I see a request for this at least once a month.

Now I've found a way to do it.   No additional hardware/software needed.

I'm working on a How-To now.   When it's done I'll publish it on line here in the forum.

This is some pretty hard core techie stuff.   Just yesterday I spoke with a senior Mitel Tech Support engineer that said it couldn't be done.
It can be.   It's not that easy to set up but once it is set up then it's really easy to block numbers.
It took me several hours of lab work, debug and testing so once I put the How-To out there, if you use it, ya'll need to buy me a beer.

I just finished the 1st draft.   Handed it off to one of my teammates for editing.
Hopefully I'll have it on line this week.

Ralph,
Great work! This is something I'm very keen to see as I too have the same requests. The official response has always been it can't be done, so I'm VERY keen to see that it can.

Cheers

Only in the lab.
It's crazy complex.   Do at your own risk.
