Capture Callerid info from Vonage on lan

irish_rover · 04-18-2007, 02:54 PM

Has anyone tried this or found anything that can do it? I want to have a daemon on my router (clark connect) watch for callerid info as it is passed through to the vonage adapter and then push that info to clients on the lan. I mainly care about having it passed to Linux clients, but passing it to Windows would be cool too.

ok well having taught myself vonage in about 1.2 minutes of googling, i assume that they use sip. as such the details of call initiation are plaintext and easy to read: http://wiki.wireshark.org/SIP. as such i'd look at using ngrep to pull the interesting packets off the wire, and then manipulate using sed, awk etc... how you get that out of the box, i've not thought of... email?

Thanks for the idea. I also found this http://ncid.sourceforge.net/ which looks like it will do the trick. Other than that I have not seen much about trying to do this sort of thing. Honestly setting it up to display on all monitors/tvs in the house would be kind of cool.
