Abstract
An apparatus including an operation manager for an Internet Protocol (IP) telephony system. The operation manager is configured to identify a gateway which is associated with a system fault, and determine an impact of the system fault on the IP telephony system, or on an external network that is interfaced to the IP telephony system by the gateway. The impact of the system fault may be determined according to a dial pattern associated with a call routed to the gateway.
