The present invention relates to a weapon safeguarding system with a first contact-sensitive user interface for receiving use data characterizing a user. In this connection the first contact-sensitive use interface is arranged in a contact region of a weapon which is contacted by the user with a view to firing a shot. The weapon safeguarding system further comprises a control device which comprises an input unit for receiving the user data, a computer unit for verifying the user data and an output unit. In the case of a successful verification of the user data, which indicates that the user is a user who is authorized for use, the output unit outputs a release signal in order to release a discharging mechanism of the weapon. In order to provide the user data to the first contact-sensitive use interface, the weapon safeguarding system comprises a user terminal which contains the user data and a body transmission device connected to the user for the purpose of transmitting the user data to the first contact-sensitive use interface in the event of contact therewith.

A method as in claim 1 wherein said emergency call is a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) call and the step (b) of identifying emergency calls comprises the steps of: i) comparing a dialed number for each call with known emergency numbers; and ii) sending an emergency connection identifier (ECI) packet to a network area router (NAR) for a dialed number matching a known emergency number. 3. A method as in claim 2 wherein the ECI message includes an ECI packet type, a calling number, a called number, a call ID number and ECI data. 4. A method according to claim 3 wherein the ECI data includes the SGI assigned to said origination port of said identified emergency call and an emergency location identification number (ELIN) index number. 5. A method as in claim 4 wherein the ECI packet further includes call priority. 6. A method as in claim 5 wherein call priority is determined in the step (i) of comparing the dialed number with known emergency numbers. 7. A method as in claim 6 wherein identified emergency calls are queued according to said call priority. 8. A method as in claim 4 wherein the PSAP jurisdiction is identified by a route number retrieved from a source group table and corresponding to said SGI assigned to said identified emergency call. 9. A method as in claim 8 wherein the route number corresponds to the identified emergency call to said PSAP jurisdiction. 10. A method as in claim 9 further comprising the step of: (f) sending an acknowledgment from said NAR to an ECI module located at said origination port. 11. A network including an apparatus for processing emergency calls made from connected devices, said network comprising: a plurality of network entities communicating with each other; a plurality of devices connected to said network entities, at least one network entity having two or more connected said devices; a network area router (NAR) in at least one network entity; and an emergency connection identifier (ECI) module in at least one network entity with one or more ports, said ECI module in communication with said NAR, said ECI module identifying emergency calls made from devices connected to said one or more ports and forwarding identified emergency calls to said NAR, said NAR identifying a public safety access point (PSAP) corresponding to a point of origin of each identified emergency call and forwarding said each identified emergency call to said PSAP. 12. A network as in claim 11 wherein said ECI module comprises: an emergency number table including one or more series of dialed numbers corresponding to emergency telephone numbers; and an ECI port equipment number (PEN) table including port equipment numbers for ports located in said network entity in which said ECI module is located and corresponding each said PEN with a source group index (SGI) number, said SGI number corresponding to a PSAP jurisdiction. 13. A network as in claim 12 wherein the ECI emergency number table further includes priority numbers corresponding to said emergency numbers. 14. A network as in claim 13 wherein said ECI PEN table further includes an ELIN index corresponding to each PEN entry. 15. A network as in claim 12 wherein the NAR includes a routing table, a source group table and an ELIN table. 16. A network as in claim 15 wherein said routing table provides a routing for identified dialed emergency numbers. 17. A network as in claim 16 wherein the source group table indicates a route number for each SGI number. 18. A network as in claim 12 wherein said at least one ECI module is two or more ECI modules, at least one of said two or more ECI modules is located on a common network entity with said NAR. 19. A network as in claim 18 wherein at least one network entity includes ports located in t
