This integer sets the Severely Errored Framing Seconds count that, if exceeded over the current full-day Section-layer interval, triggers a statistical alarm, defaulting to 7. An admin cares because this daily SEFS threshold catches a section experiencing repeated brief framing-sync losses scattered throughout the day that individually stay under the 15-minute threshold of 3. For example, a section that loses frame sync for a couple of seconds twice an hour, every hour, would accumulate well past this daily threshold of 7 without any single 15-minute window tripping its own alarm.
