Introduction
Cisco Prime Assurance Manager (or Prime AM) is a web-based user application for application-aware 
network service assurance and performance management. It comprises two types of components:
Data collectors—Collect performance and performance-oriented fault data from devices in the 
network using protocols and mechanisms such as Cisco NAM, NetFlow, SNMP polling, traps, 
syslogs, and so on. Collected data is aggregated and thresholds are compared against it. 
Cisco Prime Assurance Manager server—With the collected data, Prime AM provides the following 
functionality to end users:
Centralized performance monitoring—Prime AM provides dashboards and reports to view 
performance data at varying levels of granularity and aggregation, both spatial and time-based.
Service Assurance—Prime AM identifies running applications and network services 
automatically, correlating these services with performance and fault data.
