Hi Tony, Only used IOWA because I am all the way in NYC. It is very central and advanced as far as I am concerned. Next time I will say NEW JERSEY.
Ask the 911 operations center managers about NENA. They should know about it. NENA (National Emergency Number Association) are the ones who try to make policy for E911. Very respected (I believe all volunteers) people in the 911 community with great knowledge of the issues. Thank you.

The call will go to NYPD. Why is it the theoretical VoIP user in such examples always seems to be from Iowa or Nebraska? I feel compelled to state that not all people from these states are farmers with pitchforks and SIP phones. I personally live in Omaha, Nebraska, a city I that the Census Bureau indicates I share with 390,006 others, and that may not even include the suburbs. I respectfully request that future examples use other sparsely populated states such as Montana or perhaps a Canadian province from time-to-time. On a more serious note this thread has been very interesting, and this 911 issue will be very important to our organization in the near future. Luckily the 911 operations center is located in our basement so collaboration is easier for us, but when we roll out VoIP we will need to address the redundancy issues and the location issues for remote offices just like any other business. -- Tony Kava Senior Network Administrator Pottawattamie County, Iowa _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
