The VPF ENUM Registry is based on the IETF ENUM Standards - using standard DNS architecture. ENUM describes the method of mapping a telephone number to a URI (such as sip://12125555555@company.com). Numbers that are registered in the VPF ENUM Registry can be queried and terminated at no cost, allowing calls to stay within the IP domain and completely bypass the PSTN.

The VPF SRV Registry is based on the IETF SRV Standards - using standard DNS architecture. SRV describes the method of mapping services and protocols to a hostname, which can enable applications to use e-mail like identifiers for initiating calls. SRV records that are registered in the VPF SRV Registry can be queried and terminated at no cost, allowing calls to stay within the IP domain and completely bypass the PSTN.

List of our locations is available at About VPF: VPF Locations page.

Minutes Market & ASP Market: Bilateral Agreements

Once a business transaction has been completed- Both parties then proceed with establishing the VoIP (or application) interconnect (e.g. SIP/H.323/SIGTRAN trunks).

VPF ENUM Registry & VPF SRV Registry: Multilateral Agreement (MLA)
The VPF ENUM & SRV Registries MLA ensures that all members interconnect on an equal basis.

Members of the registry are required to upload their E.164 telephone numbers into the registry and agree to accept calls from other members for no termination fee. Your VoIP equipment/gateway must support ENUM lookups during the call setup process. A BGP route-reflector is available for members of the ENUM registry - By peering with this route-reflector, you will automatically peer with other members thus avoiding to configure individual BGP sessions.

Yes. When trading minutes, it is the member's responsibility to setup bilateral agreements and cover key points such as terms, conditions, pricing and settlement.

VPF does not provide co-location services. We have partnerships with companies around the world who provide carrier class co-location and interconnect services. See Partners: Colocation page for details.
