Re: [Ecrit] Emergency Call Framework for Canada; Questions on draft-ietf-ecrit-framework-09

["Winterbottom, James" <James.Winterbottom at andrew.com>]

There was one very strong point made in i2 all along, and that is NO UPGRADES to residential equipment is required in order for it work. It may work better if upgrades are made, but they MUST NOT be required.

So, if I can use a device inside my home network and it can go out through my RG to the Internet and VSP to make an emergency call it has to work out of the box, as is, no matter when I bought it. I know some people don't like these requirements, but they are still requirements.

I will also point out that these are the requirements that are addressed in the LIS discovery through an RG draft that Martin T is authoring.

Cheers
James

James -- upgrading residential gateways to support (DHCP) Option 99 
or 123 requires no new hardware either.... (last I checked)
