ACS incorporates media server capabilities for both VoIP (Voice over IP) and PSTN (T1
or E1) interfaces. In addition, ACS is an application server for several other
Alcatel-Lucent applications, providing VoIP and PSTN telephony as well as Instant
Messaging and Presence.
Note:
Running a port scan (for example, Digital Defence ) against an ACS server to
check that information is secure could cause logs to exceed capacity resulting in a
server crash.
