Add STIR/SHAKEN originate vs terminate guidance in Q3

Browse source 
Wholesale providers that only receive/terminate pre-signed calls don't
need a STIR/SHAKEN signing certificate. Info box explains: originating
providers must sign with own cert (as of June 2025), but
terminating-only providers just verify signatures (software config)
and file RMD as "partial implementation."

<strong>Do you need a STIR/SHAKEN certificate?</strong><br>
Only if you <strong>originate</strong> calls (place them onto the network). As of June 2025, originating providers must sign all calls with their own certificate — they can no longer rely on upstream providers to sign on their behalf.<br><br>
If you only <strong>receive and terminate</strong> pre-signed calls from other carriers, you don't need a signing certificate. You'll verify incoming signatures (a software configuration, not a certificate purchase) and file your RMD as "partial implementation."

<strong>Why do wholesale voice vendors require an OCN?</strong><br>
An Operating Company Number identifies your company in the telecom numbering system. Major voice providers like Bandwidth, Telnyx, Lumen, and Peerless require it to open a wholesale account, port numbers, and assign DID blocks. Without an OCN, you're limited to reseller-tier access.
