Every device that would be capable of doing anything also has an OS. That OS is likely shared amongst multiple device models. The only involvement ISPs should have is ensuring that they have proper IP <-> geolocation information and your standard IP forwarding principles. ISPs should not be involved in the processing or design of any of this. It simply doesn't involve them. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Masataka Ohta" <mohta@necom830.hpcl.titech.ac.jp> To: nanog@nanog.org Sent: Monday, January 4, 2021 9:01:57 AM Subject: Re: NDAA passed: Internet and Online Streaming Services Emergency Alert Study Mike Hammett wrote:
What makes the most sense is the underlying OS does the work and not each individual app.
It all depends on not OSes but devices. Any device with speaker should produce audible alert and any device with display should produce visible alert. As devices are identified at the IP layer, the alert must be distributed at the IP layer, that is, by ISPs. Masataka Ohta
