The Canoga Perkins' Performance Collection System is a suite of tools that permit the
monitoring and collection of network performance attributes. The Performance Collection System
(PCS) application collects network performance assurance and service availability statistics
across operator networks for their associated services including video, voice, storage and data
applications. Network performance and availability reports may be generated that can identify
conformance or non-conformance. Below is a brief description of the three network performance
functions. For detailed instructions on setting up and using these functions, please see the
CanogaView Service Level Agreement User Guide (product number 6912641).
