interconnect directly with a PSAP?
by robverk＠hotmail.com July 7, 2021

July 7, 2021

I have been out of the game for about 20 years and now I am back. I have a lot to catch up on but I'm hoping this listserv can help me out. I have a few questions * Is it possible to interconnect directly with a PSAP? * Is a CLEC license/agreement still required? * Is this interconnection still only offered via TDM or is IP/SIP an option? Thanks for your help. Rob

interconnect directly with a PSAP?

The answer to all 3 is, it depends. Generally there are non clec ways to attach to 911 directly (the exact process will have to be worked out by talking to the carrier providing 911 in that area) (or indirectly through the likes of intrado or intelliquent) and at least in Michigan, the carrier who won 911 contracts throughout Michigan actually is native IP on the network, and TDM connectivity is an upcharge.

Shapefile\KMZ of Ratecenters
by voiceops＠ics-il.net July 6, 2021

July 6, 2021

Is there a source of shapefile\kmz data of ratecenters so that I can paint a better view of coverages? It's hard to tell where coverage is and isn't with just a spreadsheet. None of the networks I talk to ever have a realistic map of their coverage. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com

8YY Traffic
by voiceops＠ics-il.net July 3, 2021

July 3, 2021

Is there any reason I can't throw all 8YY traffic at my IXC tandem? In looking in my Metaswitch config, it appears that only 8YY traffic destined for my LATA (which doesn't really make any sense) goes to the tandem. Everything else goes out to a domestic termination provider. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com

Market Leaders?

Last time I looked into this was Level3 and Global Crossing but that was some time ago. I know bandwidth has a close relationship with Microsoft for Teams because they say there are the only provider that can offer E911 services for Direct Routing for Teams. I find this odd because I thought all that was needed for E911 services was a connection to the PSAP or am a wrong?

question about stir/shaken - iat and DATE header
by myaklin＠firstlight.net July 2, 2021

July 2, 2021

All, Pretty simple question here. When you do a verify request are you filling in the iat with your sbc's current date/time or using the DATE information from the invite? With Neustar the iat is currently optional. IQNT is basically removing the DATE header in a test we are doing by sending them a call and getting it back in a different region. It really does not make sense to me to use the DATE header because it could be messed with by anyone in the path. It is untrusted. The iat is trusted so when you verify it makes more sense to use the current date/time of your SBC because the limitation is 60 seconds from AS to VS. I imagine Neustar made it optional because their own system has some intelligence when it comes to this expiration of the AS. On top of that Metaswitch is not prepared for this situation. They are basically counting on that DATE header to be there in their recommended perimeta SBC config. They plan to fix it by using the current date/time. Just looking for how others are handling this. Just leaving it blank for now? Matt

TMobile Sending Calls to LRN not Called Number

Anyone else seeing calls from TMobile coming in with the LRN as the called number? The ISUP doesn't show the actual called number so we can't route the calls. -Matthew

STIR/SHAKEN non-tech

We have a consultant filing our mitigation plan (June 30 deadline) and are working with Metaswitch\TNS on the technical aspects (seems like we have until 2022 to do that). >From some webinars I got the impression that we needed a variety of policy and procedure changes to be compliant. Where is a good resource to figure those out? Yes, I am working a variety of things in parallel in this project. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com
