3. 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.

4. 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.

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

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

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.
