What is swanLinkErrorMaxPeriods?

This read-write INTEGER (1-20, default 10) sets the total number of periods used when calculating overall WAN link quality. An admin adjusts this to control how much historical sampling data factors into the link quality calculation, balancing responsiveness against averaging out transient noise. Increasing swanLinkErrorMaxPeriods smooths out the link quality assessment over a longer history, reducing sensitivity to brief error spikes.

Examples
