Introduction
This chapter explains how to administer IP Line 4.5 and the Voice Gateway
Media Card on CS 1000 systems using Element Manager.

Element Manager administration procedures

This section describes the administration procedures that can be performed
using Element Manager.

Turn off browser caching

Internet Explorer caching interferes with the Element Manager application, in
that users cannot see real-time changes as they occur. For this reason, Nortel
recommends that Internet Explorer’s caching be turned off prior to using
Element Manager.
Follow the steps outlined in Procedure 24 on page 365 to prevent caching of
web windows by the Internet Explorer browser.

IP Line Operational Measurement report scheduling

and generation

Operational Measurement (OM) reports provide important statistical and
traffic information and feedback to the system administrator to better
engineer the system. The information stored in the OM file applies only to the
calls routed over the IP network by way of IP Line. OM reports give a
quantitative view of system performance, such as jitter.
A single Voice Gateway Media Card’s Operational Measurements file can be
viewed directly from Element Manager. This OM report is a view of the
LTPS and Voice Gateway channel activity on that specific card. Use this
procedure to view the individual card’s information for each Voice Gateway
Media Card in the node.
The Voice Gateway Media Card OM file contains the following information:
• the number of incoming and outgoing calls
• the number of call attempts
