OK, let’s get this over with, eh?

What are these 6 IDs discussing?

• How to get a (sometimes preferred) LoST Server, and/or PSAP/ESRP, URI(s) into an endsystem

• How to get a (sometimes preferred) emergency dialstring(s) into an endsystem

• No one ID discusses both

Where are these mechanisms used?

• Access Providers and Enterprises (of all sizes) *can* use DHCP for users to request and/or deliver URIs and Emergency Dialstrings

• VSPs (which could be from a local network or Call processing on the other side of planet) will have SIP communications with endpoints, thus SIP UAs *can* request and/or deliver URIs and Emergency Dialstrings

How are these Mechanisms used?

• During Network Attachment time and/or periodic refresh, specific info *can* be requested for download, or just downloaded to endsystem

• Instead of new protocols, all 6 IDs propose extensions to either DHCP or SIP, which are already a given in most, if not all endsystems

draft-polk-dhc-ecrit-uri-lost-00

• Specifies how an Access Network (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a LoST Server URI– By creating a new DHCP Option for the LoST server– May or may not involve a location resolution to return

URI

• Motivation: This is the easiest means of getting a LoST URI into a client

• Open Issues – change filename to -ecrit-

draft-polk-ecrit-dhc-emergency-dialstring-option-00

• Specifies how an Access Network (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a local or visited emergency dialstring– By creating a new DHCP Option for what is important,

or required to be understood, on that network– May or may not involve a location resolution to return

URI

• Motivation: This is the easiest means of getting a LoST URI into a client

• Open Issues – keep ISO country code?

draft-polk-dhc-ecrit-uri-psap-esrp-00

• Specifies how an Access Network (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a PSAP/ESRP URI– By creating a new DHCP Option for the appropriate

PSAP/ESRP– Means DHCP Server will have to implement LoST

• Unless there is only one answer ever

• Motivation: Local network may be in best position to provide this easy to deliver URI

• Open Issues – change filename to -ecrit-

SIP Registration 101

• SIP UAs Register within a Domain for a certain amount of time– Generally advisable to use TLS, thus this is secure communications anyway

draft-polk-ecrit-lost-server-uri-00

• Specifies how an Application Provider (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a LoST Server URI– By creating a new SIP option-tag and header for the

LoST server

• Motivation: Application provider is the one often responsible for emergency calling results, but can’t be if it doesn’t give this answer

• Open Issues – none

draft-polk-ecrit-emergency-dialstring-00

• Specifies how an Application Provider (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a local or visited emergency dialstring– By creating a new SIP option-tag and header for what

is important, or required to be understood, on that network when a user enters a locally significant dialstring

• Motivation: SIP solution within existing TLS secure registration from a trusted server

• Open Issues – change filename to -ecrit-– BNF needs to be corrected

draft-polk-ecrit-mapping-during-registration-00

• Specifies how an Application Provider (SP, Enterprise, SMB, home) provides a PSAP/ESRP URI– By creating a new SIP option-tag and header for the

appropriate PSAP/ESRP– Means SIP Registrar will have to implement LoST

• Unless there is only one answer ever

• Motivation: Application Provider has trusted servers (by contract), and may be bound to provide this URI

• Open Issues – change filename to -ecrit-

Open issues here

• Listed under each ID’s slide

• Asked by DHC chairs to move all related IDs over to ECRIT, resulting in two of these IDs getting new filenames very soon

What’s Next?

• Take comments how to improve each ID

• Want several to become WG items– draft-polk-ecrit-lost-server-uri-00– draft-polk-dhc-ecrit-uri-lost-00– draft-polk-ecrit-dhc-emergency-dialstring-option-00– draft-polk-ecrit-emergency-dialstring-00

• Willing to keep PSAP URI IDs individual for now, unless WG thinks otherwise is best
