ENUM Testing In Full Swing
posted by michael on Sunday January 12 2003, @09:36AM

Richard Shockey has posted a list of "more or less 'official' ENUM or ENUM trial related Web Sites" to the IETF's ENUM Working Group mailing list. A re-organized and HTMLized version of that list follows. Looks like there are trials in many of the major telephone markets...

ENUM is a project designed to link IP numbers (internet resources) to telephone numbers, with vast usability (and privacy!) implications. As NeuStar explains it,

ENUM (RFC 2916) is the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) protocol that will assist in the convergence of the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and the IP network; it is the mapping of a telephone number from the PSTN to Internet services--telephone number in, URL out. ENUM was developed as a solution to the question of how to find services on the Internet using only a telephone number, and how telephones, which have an input mechanism limited to twelve keys on a keypad, can be used to access Internet services.

You can test ENUM yourself

If you want to use ENUM yourself, get a few SIP based softphones and the SIP call management software - all of this is available in open source form from http://www.vovida.org/ [vovida.org]

VOCAL 1.4 and 1.5 support ENUM as part of your SIP dial-plan.
