So, you're saying that when a call is placed from a set on the switch to an external number the person's name shows?? Is this the same name as that which is programmed on the CPND on the set? In my experience, there are primarily two ways of showing caller ID info. Either the main billing number and the name of the company are shown or the DID and the name of the company are shown. I've never seen where the CPND name shows on an external call. It might be possible but I've never seen it in my ten years of working on Nortel equipment. If all you're wanting is to program a name on a DN, you can do that in LD 95 as follows:
REQ NEW
TYPE NAME
CUST (I assume it's 0 for you here)
Prompt down to DN and enter the DN of the set and press enter
NAME Enter name here
I hope this is what you're looking for. Let me know if I'm wrong about there not being a way to show the name that's programmed in the switch on an external caller ID.
