1. Alternatives for Providing Routing and Location Information to support Emergency Calling from IP Enterprises Prepared For: NENA VoIP Meeting on behalf of SBC, BellSouth, Qwest July 29, 2003 Telcordia Contacts: Nadine Abbott (732) 758-5257 nabbott@telcordia.com An SAIC Company Telcordia Technologies – Confidential Restricted Access This document contains proprietary information that shall be distributed, routed or made available only within Telcordia Technologies, SBC, and BellSouth, and Qwest except with written permission of Telcordia Technologies.

2. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 2 Purpose and Objectives  Provide an overview of a possible evolution for supporting location information for emergency calls originated from IP networks. –High-level information flows  Discussion to identify path forward –Identify and solicit comments on new interface functionality that needs to be supported.

3. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 3 Terms  ALI = Automatic Location Identification (including street address, detailed location, etc.)  CBN = Call Back Number (a dialable NANP number, or Telephone Number [TN] assigned to the IP Enterprise)  CGL = Calling Geodetic Location (lat/long) as defined in ANSI T1.628 for ISDN and for SS7.  CMF = Call Management Function (generic term used to represent various VoIP architecture functions that may be used to support call management, e.g., H.323 Gatekeepers, SIP Servers, Megaco Call Agents, etc.)  LIS = Location Information Server (or application/function)  ELIN = Emergency Location Identification Number = dialable NANP number used to identify an Emergency Response Location on a customer’s premises; usually allocated from among the customer’s DID numbers.  ERL = Emergency Response Location = a specific geographic area on a customer’s premises with a unique association to a PSAP ESN.

4. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 4 Terms (cont.)  “Address Token” = an identifier assigned/administered by the Network LIS and associated with a particular ERL. (This term differs from ELIN in that it need not be a dialable NANP number.)  ESN = Emergency Service Number = an up to 5-digit identifier uniquely associated with an ESZ and a PSAP DN.  ESZ = Emergency Service Zone = a specific geographic area with a unique association with police, fire, and emergency medical response agencies.  “Shell record” = A record that includes some, but not all of the required information for processing an emergency call. Some examples for various scenarios: –An ALI DB shell record for an ERL might include an Address Token identification, information about the carrier, the IP enterprise customer, and MSAG validated address information for the ERL, but not a Telephone Number. This shell record might be used to create temporary records for a CBN in real time. May be supplemented with additional location details in real time during a call, or may be used to create initial temporary records for a CBN. –An SRDB shell record for a TN might include a default ESN or an identifier for a Network LIS to be queried for routing information.

5. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 5 Terms & Abbreviations (cont.)  ALI DB – Automatic Location Identification Data Base  DBMS – Data Base Management System  LIS – Location Information Server  PS-ALI – Private Switch ALI  PSAP – Public Safety Answering Point  SRDB – Selective Routing Data Base  VoIP – Voice over IP  CAS – Call Associated Signaling  NCAS – Non-Call Associated Signaling  SIP – Session Initiation Protocol

6. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 6 Assumptions  Assume that the Local LIS will perform address validation for all of its ERLs before implementing emergency calling from VoIP devices.  Assume that the Local LIS will periodically request re-validation of its ERL address information, scheduled as required to reflect expected frequency of changes in MSAG data.  Assume that Local LIS will be able to track locations of the served VoIP devices and determine when a device has moved between ERLs (for NCAS-like solutions-see slide 13).  Assume that the Local LIS will able to accept and store Address Tokens received from the Network LIS, and associate them with the appropriate ERL and address information.

7. VoIP 9-1-1 location id migration – nba Telcordia Technologies Proprietary - Internal use only. See proprietary restrictions on title page. 7 Assumptions  Assume that for scenarios when the Network LIS is in the critical path for real-time processing, it will be designed so as to have the same availability, reliability, and accessibility characteristics as the SRDB and ALI DBs.  Assume that at a minimum, for all alternatives, new connectivity and an interface between the Local LIS and the Network LIS will need to be supported. –For some scenarios, connectivity may be established only as needed for address validation –In other scenarios, interface also used to push location information into the E9-1-1 network and/or data bases.
