1. A method for diagnosing a problem on a packet network said method comprising:
- collecting network performance information associated with data packet communications over a packet network;
monitoring a network performance information parameter;
determining that the network performance information parameter crosses a threshold value; and
in response to determining that the network performance information parameter crossed the threshold value, initiating diagnostics to determine a cause of the network performance information parameter crossing the threshold value.

Abstract
A system and method for diagnosing a problem on a packet network. Network performance information associated with data packet communications over a packet network may be collected. A network performance information parameter may be monitored and a determination that the network performance information parameter crosses a threshold value may be made. In response to determining that the network performance information parameter crossed the threshold value, diagnostics may be initiated to determine a cause of the network performance information parameter crossing the threshold value.
