During the last decades, the Internet has steadily developed into a mass medium with millions of users. On the one hand, newfangled services replace traditional ones. Naturally, these are thereby expected to offer at least the same features as their classical pendants, e.g., when VoIP replaces traditional fixed line telephone networks. On the other hand, the requirements on network infrastructures and services have changed. A reason for that is the lack of Trust-by-Wire in packet-switched IP networks. In traditional telephone networks, a phone number directly coheres with a physical line. This direct relationship is not given in modern packet-switched IP networks. An IP address does not identify a physical line! This paper presents a new mechanism, which guarantees Trust-by-Wire in packetswitched IP networks-called Internet Protocol-Calling Line Identification Presentation (IPclip). Unambiguous and trustworthy location information is added on the IP level. Firstly, IPclip's general functionality is presented. Secondly, we discuss IPclip in the light of location-aware emergency calls in nomadic VoIP environments.

“…As proposed in [2], [3], the IPclip mechanism can be used for various use cases such as supporting VoIP ECs, countering phishing threats and in an anti-spam scenario. Due to IPclip's manifold fields of application, it constitutes a contribution to extending and supporting network-based services offered by consumer electronics.…”

This demonstration shows the hardware prototype of the IPclip (IP Calling Line Identification Presentation) mechanism for IPv6 networks. IPclip is a mechanism, which provides Trust-by-Wire in IP-based networks by adding trustworthy location information to IP packets. It is implemented on an FPGA development board and configurable at runtime via a graphical configuration tool. We show IPclip's basic functionality in a localization scenario using an analysis tool and Google Earth and discuss several application scenarios during the demonstration.
