ABSTRACT:
The present invention enables edge components, such as Border Elements, of the service provider's network to capture performance data on all endpoints connected to them including registered devices (e.g., CPE gateways, IP phones, and terminal adaptors) and access links. The present invention enables the performance data to be sent to a centralized repository that consolidates information across the entire network, analyzes it, and segments it with respect to location of events that cause defects in calls. The performance data can then be graphically mapped into predefined network segmentations to enable faster identification and resolution of network problems.
