Over the past weekend, our E-bit violations have gone from 0 to 1864 - this
on a E1 PRI:
portmaster1> sh line0
---------------------- line0 - E1 Primary Rate ISDN ---------------
Status: UP F1 Framing: CRC4 Encoding: HDB3 PCM: a-law
Violations
-----------------------------
Bipolar 1702
CRC4 6
E-bit 1857
FAS bit 0
Livingston PortMaster PM-3 ComOS 3.8.2
System uptime is 84 days 2 hours 22 minutes
Is 2000 of these high over a 2 day period? (we've never had any before!)
This weekend has simultaeniously seen lots of user reports of *two*
phonecalls being required to connected to the PM3 - the first gets either
dead air or an engaged tone, the second, immediately afterwards, gets
through fine.
I'm presuming that the two are related and that some telco config
change/problem is affecting our users - but what might be the cause? Can
anyone recommend what I might ask then to look at? (in the past, they've
said "can't replicate the problem" and closed the trouble ticket...)
I'm loathe to reboot the pm3 until such troubleshooting as is possible has
been done against it...
