Use the Ems window to specify the EMS with which the SBC will register. If the SBC is currently registered with an EMS, its IP address is shown.

To enable dynamic Service Discovery of the EMS IP address, you must specify a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) as the target for EMS registration. By using Service Discovery and an FQDN, the SBC can maintain registration with an EMS server without the need for re-initiating whenever an EMS IP address changes. For more information on using Service Discovery, refer to Service Discovery for Trap Target Destinations and EMS Registration.

This configuration applies and is visible only in SBC SWe virtualized deployments.

To View EMS Configuration

On the SBC main screen, go to All > System > Ems 

The Ems window opens.
