Abstract
A device (D) is dedicated to mapping quality of service in a fixed communication network including communication lines connecting network equipments (Ci) to communication terminals (T) via access points to at least one service (MD). The device (D) comprises i) control means (MC1) adapted to instruct a network management equipment (EG) coupled to the network equipments (Ci) to determine analysis data representative of a selected quality of service and/or a traffic state relating to at least one terminal (T) and/or a network equipment (Ci) situated in at least one selected area of the network, ii) collection means (MC2) adapted to collect in the network management equipment (EG) the analysis data that has been determined, and iii) processing means (MT) adapted to determine the geographical position of terminals (T) and/or network equipments (Ci) situated in a selected area and to which the collected analysis data relates, in order to associate it with the corresponding analysis data, and to deliver in a cartographic form the analysis data associated with the geographical positions of the network equipments and/or terminals situated in each selected area, with a view to the processing thereof.
