Remember, CALEA compliance is separate from any intercept orders you receive. If you ask your voice folks, you'll also find out very few current voice intercepts actually use CALEA compliant equipment or capabilities. CALEA is primarily concerned with the interception of real-time communications, and doesn't included access to stored records. http://www.access.gpo.gov/uscode/title47/chapter9_subchapteri_.html Also if you talk to your voice guys who have been doing this for many years, you'll discover everytime an telephone engineer opened his mouth and said "what about this," the response from the government was "yes, we want that too, even though we don't understand what it is." Anyone concerned with broadband CALEA should check with their legal team and officers to see who if anyone signed off on the securities manual form 445 and form 105 SSI. Dealines were in February and March, so if your legal believes you are needing to comply, they should have already handled the matter. Yep, that's why you have lawyers and legal departments. CALEA is not an engineering problem, its a legal/budget problem. Whose legal and budget is going to pay for it, and who doesn't.
