| Description | The number of times the CMTS receives the Ranging request
from the Cable Modem.
The CMTS issues a Station Maintenance transmit opportunity
at a typical rate of once every 10 seconds and waits for
a Ranging request from the Cable Modem.If the CMTS receives
a Ranging request then the Hit count will be increased by 1
If the FlapTotal count is high,both Hits and Misses counts
are high, and other counters are relatively low then the
flapping is probably caused by the modem going up and down.
The Hits and Misses counts are keep-alive polling
statistics.
The Hits count should be much greater than the Misses count
Discontinuites in the value of this counter can occur if
this entry is removed from the table and then re-added, and
are indicated by a change in the value of
ccsFlapCreateTime. |
