Seems like kind of a false distinction -- if the network doesn't know you, it doesn't know you. Are you envisioning anonymous users that *won't* be allowed emergency call access?

The goal is to provide a specific "emergency only" network access, rather than anonymous access. Indeed, anonymity is typically not the goal. As a hotel operator, I might be happy to provide emergency call access even to non-guests, but clearly don't want to free Internet access to the neighborhood. Thus, I think that the "sos" NAI in the short term, along with non-subscription-based access right token for emergency calling longer term, is a reasonable direction.

In particular, providing unauthenticated *network* access is a prerequisite for providing unauthenticated *VoIP* access.

Also, Bernard: Does your below mention of "anonymous" NAI indicate that there is actually a reserved NAI "anonymous"? If so, then I don't really see the use for a separate "sos" NAI -- you can just provide ECRIT access to "anonymous".
