Calling Line Identification
When you receive a call from the Internet, the caller's number or the name they
have specified is displayed on the screen.

on the screen if the following conditions are met:
u
Your fixed line network provider supports CLIP, CLI:
– CLI (Calling Line Identification): the caller's number is transmitted

played
u

If the phone number is identified and the caller's number is saved in your handset's
local directory, the name will be displayed from the directory.

Only calls to receive numbers assigned to your handset will be signalled
(

u
Calls made to a number that is not assigned to a handset as a receive number
will not be signalled on any handset.
