| Description | The minimum time interval between generation of successive
CDL defect indication 'notification-events' by this agent. A
'notification-event' is the transmission of a single trap or
inform PDU to a list of notification destinations.
If more than one change occurs within a short time span, for
for example if hop-by-hop forward defect indications are
received for multiple interfaces, then notification-events
for these changes should be deferred by the agent so that each
notification-event occurs at least one throttle interval after
the previous notification-event. At the end of each throttle
interval, one notification-event should be generated if the
current defect indication state on any interface is different
from the last state indicated in a notification-event. In such
a case, another throttle interval is started immediately. |
