AudioCodes Routing Manager (ARM)

Centralized dial plan and policy management
Intuitive graphical user interface
Auto-discovery of network elements
Supports third-party devices

Overview

Managing the dial plan and call routing rules of multi-site, multi-vendor enterprise VoIP networks can be extremely complicated. AudioCodes Routing Manager (ARM) delivers a powerful, innovative solution to this problem by enabling centralized control of all session routing decisions.

Through ARM’s highly intuitive graphical user interface, system administrators can design and modify their voice network topologies and call routing policies from a single location, resulting in significant time and cost savings. Time-consuming tasks such as adding a new PSTN or SIP trunk interconnection, adding a new branch office or modifying individual users’ calling privileges can be carried out simply and rapidly.

Benefits

Save time by accelerating network topology design and modification
Reduce costs by simplifying voice network operations
Increase agility by enabling rapid reaction to changing network needs
Highly scalable to control any number of VoIP network elements
Increase flexibility by enforcing routing policies based on broad set of criteria

Features

Multi-vendor support for heterogeneous environments
Centralized dial plan and policy management
Easy-to-understand graphical user interface
Auto-discovery functionality for identifying network elements quickly
