An Industry Best Practice has
been agreed upon to limit the
length of time for planned
service provider downtime to a
maximum of 60 consecutive hours
as it relates to Local Number
Portability outages.
Additionally, Trading Partners
should provide 30 days notice of
planned porting outages. If 30
days is not possible, a minimum
of 14 days notice should be
provided.
It is recognized that there
may be emergency situations that
could require outages within the
proposed minimum 14 day planned
outage notification window. The
Suggested Resolution of PIM 62
is not meant to prevent any
required outages under these
extreme emergency conditions. |
