Dynamic Location Routing (DLR) for 911

Often times, customers are using terms incorrectly when talking about 911 compliance with Kari's Law and Ray Baum's Act, e-911 and Dynamic 911.  So, it's important to understand Dynamic Location Routing (DLR) for 911.  This is a complex solution designed for Microsoft Teams Direct Routing, which Evolve IP does NOT support at this timeThis is also NOT needed to be compliant with Kari's Law and Ray Baum's Act.  When supported, it can provide more specific location info when a user dials 911 from a Microsoft Teams endpoint.  To read more about this topic, please reference this Microsoft Page for Emergency Services Calling.
