AMIS Networking for the Emerald ICE
HD Voicemail Card

General Information

13.1
The networking of voice mail systems allows messages to be exchanged between
compatible voice processing systems in different (remote) locations with only
minor effect on Emerald ICE HD Voicemail Voice Processing Systems users. These
voice processing systems are networked in compliance with the analog version of
the Audio Message Interchange Specification (AMIS). AMIS establishes a
communications protocol that allows voice messages to be transferred, over
standard telephone lines, between voice processing systems that support similar
functions but use different hardware or technology. Any AMIS-compatible voice
mail system should be able to send and receive messages from another
AMIS-compatible voice mail system anywhere in the world, as long as the
standard-defined rules are followed. AMIS provides defined formats for:
• Identifying message originators and recipients.
• Addressing messages.
• Sending, receiving, and replying to messages.
Control signals are passed between AMIS locations, in-band, using DTMF tones.
The actual message contents are transmitted in analog form over the voice
connection once established.
System Administrators set up a network of AMIS compatible voice processing
systems by defining, at each network node location, the necessary communication
parameters and subscriber directory contents. The System Administrator also
monitors message traffic throughout the network and modifies operating
parameters to improve network performance.
The following section assumes that the technician is familiar with editing
system text files.
