5 EMS-Based Management
This section provides a brief description on configuring various device configurations using
AudioCodes Element Management System (EMS). The EMS is an advanced solution for
standards-based management of gateways within VoP networks, covering all areas vital for
the efficient operation, administration, management and provisioning (OAM&P) of
AudioCodes' families of gateways. The EMS enables Network Equipment Providers
(NEPs) and System Integrators (SIs) the ability to offer customers rapid time-to-market and
inclusive, cost-effective management of next-generation networks. The standards-
compliant EMS uses distributed SNMP-based management software, optimized to support
day-to-day Network Operation Center (NOC) activities, offering a feature-rich management
framework. It supports fault management, configuration and security.
Note: For a detailed description of using the EMS tool, refer to the EMS User's
Manual and EMS Server IOM Manual.
