Abstract
Systems and methods for analyzing the root cause of service failures and service degradation in a telecommunications network are provided. A method, according to one implementation, includes a step of receiving any of Performance Monitoring (PM) data, standard path alarms, service PM data, standard service alarms, network topology information, and configuration logs from equipment configured to provide services in a network. The method also includes a step of automatically detecting a root cause of a service failure or signal degradation from the available PM data, standard path alarms, service PM data, standard service alarms, network topology information, and configuration logs.
