Title : Modern Problem Statement and Framework Authors : Jon Peterson Tom McGarry Filename : draft-peterson-modern-problems-00.txt Pages : 8 Date : 2015-03-08 Abstract: The functions of the public switched telephone network (PSTN) are gradually migrating to the Internet. This is generating new requirements for many mechanisms used by the PSTN, including telephone numbers (TNs). TNs no longer serve simply as telephone routing addresses, they are now identifiers which may be used by Internet-based services for a variety of purposes including session establishment, identity verification and service enablement. This problem statement examines how the existing tools for allocating and managing telephone numbers do not align with the needs of the Internet environment and proposes a fraemwork for Internet-based services relying on TNs.
