Testbed Focus Group – Current Use Cases Finalize test plans and begin testing on scenarios: Number Assignment (JIT/ITN): Using existing systems Test with “Live” systems Routing LERGTM Routing Guide IP Enhancements Secure Telephone Identity (STIR/SHAKEN) Testing will occur in phased approach, each with its own timeline.

Test Plan Status and Observations Testing a proof of concept does not imply industry acceptance, only a recognition that ideas/concepts can be tested. ATIS Testbeds Focus Group does not judge the validity of proposals; instead, testing is undertaken if there is sufficient participant interest. Therefore, Test Plan submission or the completion of proof of concept testing should NOT be considered as industry approval.

JIT/ITN Use Case Traceability Matrix Use Cases Test Plans Lead Contributors Participants Observers (NDA required) Status/ Timeframe 5.1.2 Numbering Use Case 1 – JIT/ITN Using Existing Systems 00013R002 (In progress) Neustar Neustar, JSI AT&T, CenturyLink, INCOMPAS, Sprint, Cox, Inteliquent Testing is anticipated to begin 3Q17 Main objective is to demonstrate allocation of numbering resources on a real-time, per customer basis. ATIS proposed an initial list of considerations that could be part of the assessment conducted by the Testbeds Focus Group before supporting tests involving live network systems. Neustar agreed to split Test Plan into Phases: Phase 1 and 2 – Testing in Lab environment to assess feasibility All interested parties should be provided with information on the results of the testing, and potential impacts Phase 3 – Upon successful completion of Phase 2, and receipt of consent, include Live System Testing

IP LERG Use Case Traceability Matrix Use Cases Test Plans Lead Contributors Participants Observers (NDA required) Status/ Timeframe 5.2.5– LERG™ Routing Guide IP Enhancements 00014R005 (In Progress, ~3 weeks to build out for initial testing) iconectiv, Inteliquent AT&T, CenturyLink, INCOMPAS, Sprint, JSI, Neustar Early Testing steps began in 3Q16. Secondary steps likely in 2017. Enhancing the LERG™ Routing Guide to support fully-qualified domain names (FQDNs) that can be used for routing purposes. Status: iconectiv has prepared required files with FQDNs Inteliquent preparing network for internal testing

STIR/SHAKEN Use Case Traceability Matrix Use Cases Test Plans Lead Contributors Participants Observers (ATIS Members, NDA required) Status/ Timeframe 5.3.1 P-to-P Use Case 1 – Secure Telephone Identity Protocols for End-to-End SIP Calls 2017-00003R001 (New contribution submitted on 6/16 to support initial testing) Comcast, InCharge Systems, Neustar AT&T, Bandwidth.com, Comcast, Frontier, Google, InCharge Systems, Metaswitch, Neustar OEC, PrivacyStar, Somos, TransNexus CenturyLink, Cox, Ericsson, INCOMPAS (pending), Inteliquent (pending), Sprint, Verizon (pending). Initial Testing began 3Q16. Phase 1 test plan being updated and core SHAKEN testing has begun (concurrent with ongoing Phase 2 test plan development). Virtualized industry test platform to help service providers, suppliers and third parties verify implementations of ATIS SHAKEN framework. ATIS Robocalling Testbed launched as outgrowth of work underway at the ATIS Testbeds Focus Group and Robocall Strike Force to promote SHAKEN framework industry testing and broad adoption.
