Question
Company XYZ wants to use the FCAPS ISO standard for network management design. The focus of the design should be to monitor and keep track of any performance issues by continuously collecting and analyzing statistical information to monitor, correct, and optimize any reduced responsiveness across the network.

Explanation
FCAPS is an ISO network management framework with five functional areas: Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, and Security management. Performance Management (C) is specifically responsible for continuously collecting statistical data (throughput, latency, utilization, error rates), analyzing trends, and taking corrective actions to optimize network responsiveness. The question's key phrases - 'collecting and analyzing statistical information,' 'monitor, correct, and optimize reduced responsiveness' - are the textbook definition of performance management. Fault management (A) reacts to discrete failure events, not ongoing performance metrics. Accounting management (B) tracks usage for billing/auditing. Security management (D) controls access and monitors for threats.
