MS Teams Emergency Location Networks#

VOSS Automate provides a read-only overview of the elements related to Microsoft Teams emergency location networks for emergency calling, allowing you to view network sites and related subnets on a single page.

The table describes the elements that make up the emergency location networks:

Element	Description
Network Regions	Network regions can be used to logically group sites, for example, a campus, as required.
Network Sites	Network sites are location instances that group subnets and set emergency routing policies and behavior for those subnets. Network regions may align to VOSS sites, but this depends on your set up. Policies allow you to define where emergency calls are routing, for example, PSTN, or a local security desk.
Network Subnets	Network subnets are subnet instances tied to a network site. Devices and users in these subnets utilize the rules applied in the corresponding network site. Each emergency location network can have one or more subnets configured.

Description

Network Regions

Network regions can be used to logically group sites, for example, a campus, as required.

Network Sites

Network sites are location instances that group subnets and set emergency routing policies and behavior for those subnets. Network regions may align to VOSS sites, but this depends on your set up.

Policies allow you to define where emergency calls are routing, for example, PSTN, or a local security desk.

Network Subnets

Network subnets are subnet instances tied to a network site. Devices and users in these subnets utilize the rules applied in the corresponding network site. Each emergency location network can have one or more subnets configured.

View configured MS Teams emergency location networks

To view configured emergency location networks, go to (default menus) MS Teams Emergency Management > Teams Emergency Location Networks. This view also displays the policies associated with the networks (Emergency Calling Policy and Emergency Call Routing Policy).

Configure MS Teams emergency location network elements

Higher level administrators can view and edit the individual elements of MS Teams emergency location networks (sites and subnets) directly from the device models, via the following (default) menu paths in the VOSS Automate GUI:

To edit sites, go to MS Teams Emergency Management > Network Site.
To edit network subnets, go to MS Teams Emergency Management > Network Subnet.

The subnet Mask is mandatory, and for IPv4 takes maskbits from 0 to 32 inclusive, while for IPv6 format, from 0 to 128 inclusive.
