Use of the Internet for emergency calling is described in RFC 6443,
'Framework for Emergency Calling Using Internet Multimedia'.  In some
cases of emergency calls, the transmission of application data is all
that is needed, and no interactive media channel is established: a
situation referred to as 'non-interactive emergency calls', where,
unlike most emergency calls, there is no two-way interactive media
such as voice or video or text.  This document describes use of a SIP
MESSAGE transaction that includes a container for the data based on
the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP).  That type of emergency request
does not establish a session, distinguishing it from SIP INVITE,
which does.  Any device that needs to initiate a request for
emergency services without an interactive media channel would use the
mechanisms in this document.

This document is a product of the Emergency Context Resolution with Internet Technologies Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
