         <description><![CDATA[<div>SLA defines the level of expected service from the service provider. SLAs define not how the service itself is delivered or provided.<br>The metrics that define levels of service for an ISP should aim to gurantee:<br>-&nbsp; <strong>A description of the service being provided</strong> - maintenance of areas such as network connectivity, domain name servers, dynamic host configuration protocol servers <br>- Reliability - When the service is available (percentage uptime) and the limits outages can be expected to stay within.<br>- Responsiveness - Punctuality of services to be performed in response to requests and scheduled service dates.<br>- Procedure for reporting problems - who can be contacted, how problems will be reported, procedure for escalation , and what other steps are taken to resolve the problem efficiently <br>-&nbsp; <strong>Monitoring and reporting service level</strong>&nbsp; - who will monitor performance, what data will be collected and how often as well as how much access the customer is given to performance statistics <br>-&nbsp; <strong>Consequences for not meeting service obligations</strong> – may include credit or reimbursement to customers, or enabling the customer to terminate the relationship. <br>- <strong>Escape clauses or constraints</strong> – circumstances under which the level of service promised does not apply. An example could be an exemption from meeting uptime requirements in circumstance that floods, fires or other hazardous situations damage the ISP’s equipment.<br><del>The responsibilites are usually outlined within measurable terms, these are:</del><br><del>- The percentage of time a service will be available<br>- Response times after logging a ticker<br>- The schedule of notification of hardware maintenance</del></div>]]></description>
