Emergency Call Support Terminology
The following terms describe emergency call support for the Cisco Multiplatform Phones.
• Emergency Location ID Number (ELIN)–A number used to represent one or more phone extensions that
locate the person who dialed emergency services.
• Emergency Response Location (ERL)–A logical location that groups a set of phone extensions.
• HTTP Enabled Location Delivery (HELD)–An encrypted protocol that obtains the PIDF-LO location
for a phone from a location information server (LIS).
• Location Information Server (LIS)–A server that responds to a SIP-based phone HELD request and
provides the phone location using a HELD XML response.
• Emergency Call Service Provider–The company that responds to a phone HELD request with the phone's
location. When you make an emergency call (which carries the phone's location), a call server routes the
call to this company The emergency call service provider adds an ELIN and routes the call to the
emergency services (PSAP). If the call is disconnected, the PSAP uses the ELIN to reconnect with the
phone used to make the emergency call.

joined to the Emergency Services IP Network.
