If possible, I would be using the phone system PBX for this.  Find out the
numbers that the IBM equipment is dialing, and then have the PBX handle the
rest. Send emails or call someone telling them that the evil piece of IBM
equipment is phoning that number. Put the burden of this audit point on the
phone system guys.

Or put in your own open source PBX (I use Asterisk a lot) in the machine
room and run all of the IBM equipment through it. Handling this request
after that is trivial.  It logs phone use for you and send emails or call
folks when something happens as I described above.
