Table E-31. Bundle Connection Status/Statistics Parameters Parameter Possible Values / Remarks
Destination IP Address Destination IP address of the bundle configured under Bundle Connection
Configuration
Destination Mac Address In this screen the Destination Mac Address that is displayed is in fact the
resulting Mac Address of the ARP process for the destination IP address
Connectivity Status Detects a valid connection (remote IPmux will confirm it recognizes the
connection and it is enabled). The problem occurs when ever an IPmux is
either disconnected from the network , shut down or the IP path to it is broken
somewhere along the way and the opposite IPmux keeps on transmitting (UDP
application). The IPmux starts transmitting at full rate only when it correctly
detects a valid connection on the other side of the line (the remote IPmux will
confirm it recognizes the connection and it is enabled).
OK – Ethernet frames are received on the local and remote IPmux-1/1E
Remote Fail – Ethernet frames are not received by the remote IPmux
Local Fail – Ethernet frames are not received by the local IPmux-1/1E
Disabled – Connection is disabled
Validation Fail – Configuration of the local and remote IPmux units are not
compatible
Unavailable – Remote IPmux is unavailable
Sequence Errors The number of times a frame was dropped because frames were received from
the network with SN fields not equal to the last SN+1 (or 2)
Jitter Buffer Underflows The number of times frames were dropped because the receive buffer was in
an underrun state. The buffer enters underflow state when:
• Sequence errors occur
• Flow underrun takes place due to PDV expiration
• An overflow condition occurs
Jitter Buffer Overflows Number of times that frames were dropped because the receive buffer
exceeded the maximum allowed depth
Max Jitter Buffer Deviation Maximum devaiation from the middle of the jitter buffer, in units of 10 µs
