Benefits of ITU-T Y.1731 Performance Monitoring
Combined with IEEE-compliant connectivity fault management (CFM), Y.1731 performance monitoring
provides a comprehensive fault management and performance monitoring solution for service providers. This
comprehensive solution in turn lessens service providers
’
operating expenses, improves their service-level
agreements (SLAs), and simplifies their operations.
