With the PTAP tool, you can analyze metrics, isolate performance issues and run reports. You can select which network components you want to see, adjust time ranges and modify sample sizes. You can also customize threshold values and have PTAP email you if those thresholds, or contracted service level agreements (SLAs), are violated.

To access PTAP:

From here, you can do many different tasks to view and analyze your network performance:

• Using the PTAP map filters
• Running enterprise performance reports
• Identifying circuits using the most (or least) bandwidth
• Viewing averaged metrics for your network
• Viewing summary metrics for specific points in time
• Viewing your customer endpoints (CEs) on the PTAP map
• Sorting or filtering your customer endpoints (CEs) using the inventory list
  
• Creating a threshold rule for circuit and device metrics
• Editing a threshold rule for circuit and device metrics
• Suspending a threshold rule for circuit and device metrics
• Deleting a threshold rule for circuit and device metrics
