Introduction
This chapter explains how to configure IP Telephony nodes and Voice
Gateway Media Cards using Element Manager. Element Manager is accessed
using a PC with Internet Explorer 6.0.2600 (or later). The PC must be
connected to a LAN that has access to the Signaling Server’s Node IP
address, either directly or routed through the network.
Note: The ELAN subnet IP address might be required, instead of the
Node IP address, to access the Element Manager login window in secure
environments.
This chapter also provides instruction for transmitting files to Voice Gateway
Media Cards, upgrading card software, and upgrading IP Phone firmware.
Read the information on IP network engineering guidelines in Converging the
Data Network with VoIP (553-3001-160) before installing an IP Telephony
node.
