• In December FoN Reported on:
– The International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) Study Group 2
(SG2) update on the Future of Numbering work and the M2M work at
ITU SG2
– An update was provided on the Global System for Mobile Association
(GSMA) group work on resources for M2M
• Estimates are that by 2020 there will be 40-50 billion M2M devices
globally with 40-50% of that expected in the United States.
• Questions of how the M2M “traffic” will move and what
use/application will be made of the M2M information.
• In December FoN presented NANC with a request for
FoN to monitor and review the M2M activities by the
various organizations.
• NANC wanted to address at March meeting

FoN M2M
• There are now 29 NPAs designated for Personal
Communication Service (PCS)/M2M.
– Three NPAs have exhausted (500, 533, and 544) and the fourth is being
opened/implemented for assignment (566), which leaves 25 more NPAs
available for M2M.
– Given the last two NPAs (533, and 544) lasted about 12 months each, at
the recent rate of demand, the resource should last over 20 years based
on a linear forecast.
– If the demand increases to 2 NPAs per year, the resource would last 10
years.
• As there are currently adequate resources, the FoN could
monitor demand and plan accordingly.
• For the FON, it should suffice to do periodic updates on M2M
Addressing (from 3G Partnership Project (3GPP), GSMA, ITUT, Industry Numbering Committee (INC) and other groups).

Future of Numbering WG
Mission
• To explore changes to the environment, including new
and future technologies, the impact of market place
and/or regulatory changes and innovations on telephone
numbering.
Scope:
• The Working Group will investigate new telephone
numbering assignment approaches and future telephone
number assignment requirements. The Working Group
will identify common criteria and gather data to identify
trends and their impact upon numbering resources. The
Working Group, if necessary, will analyze opportunities
to determine the feasibility and benefit of each and report
its findings to the NANC. The Working Group will also
analyze various topics that may be given to it from time
to time by the NANC and/or FCC.
