This Counter64 counts path code-violation (CV) events detected on the TDM circuit carried by this pseudowire — bit or framing errors caught by the line code (such as B8ZS or HDB3) on the TDM interface feeding the PW. Because this is the cumulative TdmPwTotalStatistics counter for the pseudowire, tallied since the bin's own start time rather than being reset every short collection interval, a rising CV count points to a physical-layer problem on the TDM side of the circuit emulation (bad cabling, clocking drift, or a failing line card) rather than a problem in the packet network carrying the pseudowire. For example, seeing this counter jump from a handful of violations to several hundred within the cumulative bin on one T1/E1 circuit, while a neighboring pseudowire on the same card stays clean, would point suspicion at that specific TDM port or cable rather than the packet transport.
