摘要： The disclosure relates to a method of monitoring a communications network comprising a plurality of node equipment, eg switches, and link equipment, eg fibre optic links, in which performance parameters of individual components of the node equipment are used to determine an overall performance parameter for the node equipment. By comparing like performance parameters for individual network elements, the performance of different types of network element can be compared with each other. Parameters which can be monitored include quality of service, cell discard, cell loss, and other measures of network performance. The method includes selecting a network element (170), obtaining a set of data signals describing operation of a component (172) and generating data signals describing an overall performance of the network element from the set of data signals describing operation of components (176). Connection tracing through the plurality of node equipment and link equipment is also achieved.

摘要翻译： 本公开涉及监视包括多个节点设备（例如交换机）和链路设备（例如光纤链路）的通信网络的方法，其中使用节点设备的各个组件的性能参数来确定用于 节点设备。 通过比较各个网元的类似性能参数，不同类型网元的性能可以相互比较。 可以监视的参数包括服务质量，信元丢弃，信元丢失以及网络性能的其他测量。 该方法包括选择网络元件（170），获得描述组件（172）的操作的数据信号集合并且从描述组件（176）的操作的数据信号集合生成描述网络元件的整体性能的数据信号， 。 还实现了通过多个节点设备和链路设备的连接追踪。
