E-CSCF is a network element in IMS, which is responsible for routing an emergency call to a
PSAP. As the current E-CSCF standards are still evolving, a list of technical requirements
have been put together from various sources (3GPP, NENA, Customer specific requirements)
in Appendix A. This design document will cater to the requirements listed here.

1.2 Configurable
1.2.1 E-CSCF service
E-CSCF will be configured as a new role under the cscf-service. This will allow operators to
configure a standalone E-CSCF service.
Mode: config-cscf-service
Description: This command is used to enable emergency cscf service.
CLI:
[ctx]st16(config-cscf-service)# emergency-cscf
1.2.2 Privacy
Operator can configure privacy support for E-CSCF service. Based on this configuration,
several privacy procedures will be applied at E-CSCF.
Mode: config-cscf-service-emergency-cscf
Description: This command is used to enable privacy for emergency cscf service.
CLI:
[ctx]st16(config-cscf-service-emergency-cscf)# privacy
E-CSCF is a subscriber un-aware and hence, it will not store any subscriber specific
data.
When an out-of-dialog request is received at E-CSCF, operator is expected to setup a
cscf-route CLI so that the initial request will be routed to an external LRF component.
When the external LRF component sends a redirect response, it will provide the next-
hop PSAP address in the Contact header of the redirect response.
E-CSCF will forward the INVITE request to the PSAP address received after
applying the appropriate SIP procedures.

This section describes the mapping of the header fields received in 3xx message (from the
LRF) to the new redirected INVITE message (sent to BGCF).

typedef enum
{
UMM_EMERGENCYNUM_INVALID = 0,
UMM_EMERGENCYNUM_911,
UMM_EMERGENCYNUM_112
} UMM_TYPE_EmergencyNum;
1.6.1.3 SIPAPP_CALL_CB
When E-CSCF receives an initial INVITE request, and if the request-uri was a tel:911 or
tel:112, then SIPAPP stores this as an emergency enum in the SIPAPP_CALL_CB.
When E-CSCF receives a 3xx response with a list of PAI headers from LRF, SIPAPP will
store the list of PAI headers in the SIPAPP_CALL_CB.
