Abstract
The present invention provides a system and method for voice based network management. A network management system uses voice based scripts that allow network management operations to be performed over a phone. In one embodiment, the voice based scripts use a Voice Extensible Markup Language (VXML). However, the voice based script can be any form of communication that allows a user to conduct network management operations using Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signaling or speech commands.
