Patent number: 11463860Abstract: An emergency location information service (E-LIS) for network devices connected to proxy network devices. The proxy network devices are both analog and digital network devices. The proxy network devices send unique identification information for the network device connected to it and request either a location-by-reference (indirect location information) component or location-by-reference (direct location information) component to identify the network device for when an emergency event occurs.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Everbridge, Inc.Inventors: Nicholas M.
