About ENUM Forum...

The ENUM Forum Mission is to develop the implementation framework for deploying IETF RFC 3761 in a two-tiered DNS structure rooted under “e164.arpa” for E.164 numbers within the United States and a potential common implementation with other countries served by the North American Numbering Plan (NANP).

The ENUM Forum Scope is to develop Tier 1 and Tier 2 requirements documents that will include the architecture for the Tier 1 and Tier 2 name servers with detailed functional descriptions and message flows between the entities including Tier 1 providers, Tier 2 providers, registrars, telephone & application service providers, and end users.

The work will also include discussing and exploring methodologies for interworking with other ENUM instantiations. Other work items may be incorporated into the scope of the ENUM Forum based on written proposals that are accepted by the Forum Members.
