| Description | The number of times the Cable Modem upstream transmit power
is adjusted during station maintenance. When the adjustment is
greater than the power adjustment threshold the number will be
incremented. The power adjustment threshold is chosen in an
implementation-dependent manner
The Flap number (ccsCmFlapTotalNum) will be incremented when
this object is incremented.
If ccsCmFlapTotalNum is high, ccsCmFlapPowerAdjustmentNum is
high but the Hit and Miss are low and
ccsCmFlapInsertionFailNum are low then the flapping is
probably caused by an improper transmit power level
setting at the modem end.
This object can indicate:
Amplifier degradation,
Poor connections, or
Wind, moisture, or temperature sensitivity.
The value of this object can be reset to zero if this entry
is removed from the table and then re-added, or if the
ccsCmFlapResetNow object was set to true(1). The value of the
object ccsCmFlapLastResetTime indicates the last reset time. |
