What applications could use Enum? |
ENUM links a telephone number to a host or resources on the Internet that can connect the call, either end-to-end over IP networks or through a designated gateway to the PSTN. This is useful for connecting SIP- or H.323-compatible endpoints that exist across domain boundaries. The potential applications of ENUM are far-reaching; however, the principal applications for ENUM have centered on two areas. Although VoIP and VPIM are the most widely discussed applications, other application possibilities for ENUM, including but not limited to Internet Fax and Instant Messaging, exist. |
