Maintenance
Monitoring for errors
MMI monitors the performance of the T1 links according to several performance criteria
including errored, severely errored, bursty, unavailable, loss of frame and frame slip seconds.
It registers the performance of these criteria by reading their status every second and counting
their results. This information is accumulated for an hour, at which time the counters are reset
to 0. Results are maintained for each of the previous 24 hours.
The performance criteria for which these counts are maintained are as follows:
• Errored seconds — one or more CRC-6 errors, or one or more out-of-frame errors during
the second
• Bursty seconds — More than one and less than 320 CRC-6 errors during the second.
• Severely errored second (SES) (Not Displayed) — 320 or more CRC-6 errors, or 1 or
more out-of-frame (OOF) errors during the second

Mini-Carrier Remote Fundamentals
Ideally all the parameters should show 0 for optimum performance. However, if the
carrier is not in alarm state, it may continue to perform within the specified threshold
limits.
