Errored Seconds Threshold Monitor. Performance Rule Collects data for reporting purposes.
Below are the details of the Object Identifier (OID) that is queried via an SNMP GET
Object | OID | Description |
---|---|---|
dsx1IntervalESs | .1.3.6.1.2.1.10.18.8.1.3 | An Errored Second is a second with one or more Path Code Violations OR one or more Out of Frame defects OR one or more Controlled Slip events OR a detected AIS defect.. This is defined in RFC 1406 |
Additional Information:
Errored Seconds are used to measure the performance of DS1/E1 Links. A high number of errored seconds indicates that performance is poor. This could lead to dropped calls, noise and other transmission problems
Below are some basic troubleshooting steps
Look into other error counts to determine the source of the errored seconds.
Check the cabling to the device.
Perform any vendor specific hardware tests on the device to determine if the device's hardware is functioning properly
Call your circuit vendor to have them look at your circuit.
Raise the threshold on the monitor. This will allow for better "tuning" of the application to your environment. Take care no to raise the threshold too much as this could allow important events to go unnoticed.
