Hopefully on-topic. How are you handling TFN atestations? Although a part of NANP - it's a different technology at the network level in terms of chain of authority and routing. RespOrg manages the number, but can provision and use many carriers to make outbound calls using the TFN Caller ID (and to receive inbound calls via the same TFN)... RespOrgs is not necessarily a carrier - who and how checks that RespOrg has the authority in case of delegated attestation. I may be overcomplicating it in my mind.. but it doesn't feel like the regulation maps 1-to-1 over to TFNs... Just wondering what everyone's experience is.

Yes, that would be a good idea. Generally it is easier to get a 499A Filer ID than it is an OCN.
The good news is that in their Sixth Report and Order (https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-23-18A1.pdf) the FCC wrote, at paragraph 48:
"Finally, we require filers to submit their OCN if they have one. An OCN is a prerequisite to obtaining an SPC token, and we conclude that filing the OCN or indicating that they do not have one will allow us to more easily determine whether a provider is meeting its requirement to diligently pursue obtaining a token in order to authenticate their own calls and provides an additional way to determine relationships among providers."
Presumably they will implement this shortly (the Order is pending some administrative reviews).
