Regular 911 Testing

| Do any of you do regular 911 testing? For us, we do a monthly 911 call, but
I wanted to know if there was a more effective way of ensuring that 911
calls will go out. What methods are you using? Thanks in advance.

| You can change the route patterns to instead of the call going to 911 it
goes to your cell phone. This way you can see caller ID etc, but don't
upset the 911 center.
Cisco Operation Manager will simulate 911 calls to verify functionality.

| Caller ID doesn't mean anything if the ALI data is wrong and the psap
gets the wrong location to go with it 
While I don't schedule monthly tests, I do test for every new site
deployment as well as any time the carrier makes a change to our
circuits at the site.

| We do a test call usually as part of monthly maintenance but only if we've
patched something in the call path. for instance if all I do is patch
voicemail and antivirus one month, I won't bother the PSAP people with a 911
call.
They are very cooperative when I do call, they even help test callback
through CER when I ask them to.
