[enum-wg] Follow up on Karen Mulberry's presentation today

Carsten,

 

My responses 

 

Q1: The number resources the FCC is meant to set aside for the ENUM 

trial - will they cover all US geographic area codes or is that somehow 

limited? If so, what will be the limits or restrictions?

 

The US trial committee participants are identifying the geographic areas
(NPAs) and the amount of numbers they require to conduct their ENUM test
cases.  Since the FCC has not responded to the wavier request with any
restrictions or limits, there are none that I am aware of at this time.
Trial participants do not expect to have limits placed on them beyond
what the USG terms and conditions called for - that all numbers to be
used in the US ENUM trial must be allocated under wavier by the FCC.

 

 

Q2: In slide 5, 9 and 10 you mention the "Trial Participants Advisory 

Committee (TPAC)", what roles will be involved when in the trial and 

what documentation TPAC is meant to produce. I just wonder to what 

extent the users - aka. number holders, aka. ENUM domain name 

registrants - will be involved, as they seem to not be mentioned
explicitly?

 

The trial MOU calls for trial participants to identify what role or
roles they intend to play in the US trial.  The ones that I outlined in
my presentation are the options that a trail participant can choose
from. Such as number holders are identified as End Users and ENUM Domain
Name Registrants once they have been authenticated and verified.  There
are several parties that have indicated that they intend to be End Users
for the trial.

 

Also the TPAC will produce reports on its trial activities on a monthly
basis for the CC1 ENUM LLC.  Initially these reports should contain the
organizational plans (who is playing what role(s)) and test case
development associated with the three phases of the trial.  Once the
trial starts, I expect that the monthly reports will contain the results
of the tests that have been run during that month. Once the trial has
ended, a final report that summarizes all activities and results will be
complied for the LLC.

Karen,

 

I have two questions in relation to your presentation:

 

Q1: The number resources the FCC is meant to set aside for the ENUM 

trial - will they cover all US geographic area codes or is that somehow 

limited? If so, what will be the limits or restrictions?

 

Q2: In slide 5, 9 and 10 you mention the "Trial Participants Advisory 

Committee (TPAC)", what roles will be involved when in the trial and 

what documentation TPAC is meant to produce. I just wonder to what 

extent the users - aka. number holders, aka. ENUM domain name 

registrants - will be involved, as they seem to not be mentioned
explicitly?

 

Thanks,

 

      Carsten
