Service Level Agreement (SLA) support

For SLA support services, a valid support agreement is required. The Technical Assistance Center (TAC) is available 24/7 to respond to any network emergency. Note, this service is only available to customers with SLA.

For communication with the TAC team, a web-based Service Request ticket system is used. Service Requests track communication and activity related to a particular issue.

A Service Request priority level describes the impact the reported issue has on the current operation of the network, and defines the resources (both from Waystream and customer) that are required to resolve the issue.
