4.5More on CLID

CLID allows your Prestige to authenticate the caller before a call is answered, thus saving the cost of a connection. Your Prestige uses the caller ID in call setup message to match against the CLID in the database.

Note on CLID and Modems

For your Prestige to use the CLID authentication, it is necessary that your modem also support caller CLID.

Besides authentication, another application of CLID is to combine it with callback. For instance, your company pays for the connection charges for telecommuting employees and you use your Prestige as the dial in server. You can turn on both the CLID authentication and call back options for the dial-in users. By doing so, all usage are charged to the company instead of the employees, and your accounting department can avoid the hassles of accountability and reimbursement.
