Requirement | If a service monitoring mechanism is available to service consumers, a service description shall describe how to use the service monitoring mechanism. |
Rationale | Allow the service consumer to use the available mechanism and monitor the service. |

Guidance
The mechanisms allow the monitoring of the services provided based on e.g.

- uptime
- response times
Service monitoring is explained in the EUROCONTROL Specification for SWIM Technical Infrastructure (TI) Yellow Profile. See SWIM-TIYP-0105 that explains that monitoring ensures a service's "state is known and maintained up to date and that any eventual threshold violations on their use can be identified to be handled in an appropriate manner".
