Having a single LO for the whole DSLAM (or DHCP server) that says "XYZ County" is a whole lot easier than tracking the wiring panel changes as lines get moved. Signing is not the big deal - getting valid CA-certified signatures is. We all know how many web servers have bogus, expired or self- signed certificates, and not just Joe's Barber Shop and Delicatessen. Take a large campus with thousands of offices. Unless you have a fairly elaborate delegation mechanism, somebody externally will have to sign for each and every room. This means that the organization has to operate a CA that is trusted by the proposed VESA entity, for example. We can't even get delegation to work within Internet2 and Columbia. > > [AJW] It is not clear to me how authenticating millions of users and > their multitude of identity mechanisms is any less daunting than > We have such a mechanism, e.g., within IMS, namely P-Asserted-ID, which is very widely deployed, from what I can tell. Or the SIP identity mechanism, although that seems to just start getting traction. The PSAP wouldn't care whether and how the VSP verified the customer identity; it just gets a single client cert from the VSP in a TLS connection. You probably missed the discussion on this years ago, but your concern and the perceived difficulties of a global PKI motivated the current mechanism, as it only requires what customers must have already, namely a shared secret with their VSP, and web-style cross- provider trust with a single cert for each provider. > providing accreditation to potentially thousands of access network > providers.

This doesn't quite work, given that phones need to work universally. I don't want to buy a phone in Prague, say, that suddenly can't make an emergency call in New York city.
