  2. Content • Some basic definitions • The pieces • Naming and addressing on the Internet, URIs • The Domain Name System (DNS) • VoIP and SIP • DDDS and ENUM • Putting all pieces together • ENUM History • Administration of ENUM Richard Stastny

  3. What is required to establish a communication? • (User) Identification (and authentication) • identification of the user to the service provider (registration) • userID/PW, IMSI, … • always provider specific, not portable • Address • current network access point of the user terminal device • e.g. IP address, … • network specific, not portable • Name • mapped (dynamically) to the current address of the terminal, where the user has registered himself • mostly service related, sometimes portable • Terminology not consistent: • e-mail address, address-of-record are names Richard Stastny

  4. What is a phone number? • always numeric (with some exceptions) • used as identifiers, addresses and names • started as addresses and identifiers • now with number portability and service numbers also used as names • Types of phone numbers • private, local, national, international • E.164 numbers or International Public Telephone Numbers • Structure of E.164 numbering plan • CC N(S)N e.g. CC NDC SN • max 15 digits including 1-3 digit CC • no prefixes or access codes -> part of dialing plans Richard Stastny

  5. Naming and addressing on the Internet • Addresses: IPv4 and IPv6 • Names: Uniform Resource Identifier (URIs) • alphanumeric character strings that identify abstract or physical resources on the Internet (RFC2396) • different formats, need to be defined in an RFC and registered with IANA • Examples: • http://www.enum.nic.at • http://80.121.237.198 • mailto:richard.stastny@oefeg.at • sip:richard@iphone.at • tel:+4317978032 • URI's may contain IP addresses or domain names • Domain names need to be resolved with the Domain Name System (DNS) Richard Stastny

  6. Domain Name System (DNS) • The DNS is a distributed lookup system arranged hierarchically • It consists of 4 components • the name space • the name servers making that name space available • the resolvers (clients) querying that name space • a protocol • Domains, zones and delegation • a domain is a set of host names consisting of a single domain and all the domain names below it • a zone is any domain name delegated by an ancestor zone, ie a point of delegation • it contains all descendant domain names not been delegated • delegation means that somebody else is responsible for the subdomain • Resource Record (RR) is a unit of data • it defines some attribute for the domain • eg. an IP address, a mail route, a VoIP signaling route, a delegation • What the DNS is doing: I have "x", give me "y" Richard Stastny

  10. ENUM and DDDS • The Dynamic Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) is a generic system to implement a binding of strings to data stored in a database and is defined in RFCs 3401-3405 • The generic algorithm is defined in RFC3402 • RFC3403 defines the usage of DNS as database and therefore also defines the DNS Resource Record to be used: • Naming Authority Pointer or NAPTR • it also defines the fields of a NAPTR and how to process a NAPTR • ENUM is a DDDS application • RFC2916bis defines therefore • the algorithm: how to map a E.164 number to a domain name • the service_field = "E2U" 1*(servicespec) • how to register servicespecs with IANA (template) Richard Stastny

  11. ENUM in a nutshell • take phone number +43 1 979 33 21 • turn it into a FQDN 1.2.3.3.9.7.9.1.3.4.e164.arpa. • ask the DNS for NAPTR mailto:richard@stastny.com • returns list of URI’s sip:richard@iphone.at Richard Stastny

  12. How does ENUM work ? Telephone Number (TN): +43 1 979 33 21 translates to: 1.2.3.3.9.7.9.1.3.4.e164.arpa Tier 1 resolution to NS of authority ( pointer only) 1.2.3.3.9.7.9.1.3.4.e164.arpa. IN NS ns1.iphone.at Tier 2 resolution to NAPTR record and SIP URL controlled at the end office IN NAPTR 10 10 "u" “E2U+sip“ !^.*$!SIP:richard@iphone.at“! . set up call Richard Stastny

  13. fwd.pulver.com nic.at43.at So what is ENUM adding? ENUM DNS IN NAPTR 3.4.3.9.1.1.1.3.9.3.0.1.8.7.8.e164.arpa. ? ... NAPTR ... "!^.*!sip:19343@fwd.pulver.com!"

  16. So how can ENUM be used? • Business: with IP PBX or IP Centrex • with geographic and/or numbers for networks (opt-in) • linking IP islands together globally via the Internet • Residential: with my geographic number (opt-in) • either as secondary line or as primary line (ported out) • Residential: with my mobile number • terminate IP originated calls on IP, plus evenually forwarding or forking to my mobile • operators may provide forced ENUM access from the PSTN • Residential and Business: ENUM-only number • IP device can be reached from PSTN and IP • calls may be dumped to IP in the originating network Richard Stastny

  17. ENUM and VoIP as a Trigger • ENUM is tightly linked with numbering and therefore with the regulatory framework • Deployment of ENUM is also tightly linked with the deployment of VoIP • Deployment of VoIP causes a direct conflict between Telco's and ISP's • Deployment of ENUM involves NRA's and Registries (in Europe primarily the ccTLD's) • ENUM and VoIP therefore cause a lot of questions and issues to surface.

  18. A (very short) ENUM History • Sept. 2000 – IETF ENUM WG – RFC2916 • 2001 – Various Workshops (ITU-T, Europe, US, …) • 2002 – ITU-T Interim Procedures (IAB, RIPE-NCC) – ETSI SPAN11 TS "ENUM Administration in Europe" – Austrian ENUM Trial in operation (Sept. 2002) • 2003 – ETSI SPAN11 TS "Minimum Requirements for Interoperability of European ENUM Trials" – IETF RFC2916bis WGLC – Various national and international ENUM Trials – using different scenarios and numbering resources – and using different ENUM-enabled products • 2004 – ETSI ENUM Plugtests and Workshop – ENUM ready for production Richard Stastny

  20. The ENUM "Tiers" Registry Tier-0 International-RIPE-NCC and ITU-TSB National CC 43 CC 1 Directs the DNS query to the customer’s Tier-2 providers. An NS* record is provided for each subscriber’s telephone number Registry Registry Tier-1 Tier-1 Stores a list of service specific internet addresses in the form of URI’s in a DNS resource record called NAPTR for each subscriber. Returns the full list of Internet addresses associated with the E.164 number being queried. Provider Tier-2 *An NS record is an authoritative Name Server DNS record used to delegate to subordinates Richard Stastny
