The device management takes place by communication between a server (which is managing the device) and the client (the device being managed). OMA DM is designed to support and utilize any number of data transports such as:
rich-media chat, including point-to-point Voice-over-IP and video chat, timestamps, emoticons, and chat histories; group and multi-way chat; web conferencing; contact business cards; interoperability with public IM networks via the HCL Sametime Gateway, including AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo!
