lpImaTestBitErrorRate
Module: Nortel-Magellan-Passport-ImaMIB
OID (symbolic): Nortel-Magellan-Passport-ImaMIB::lpImaTestBitErrorRate
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.2.4.1.12.22.2.12.1.11
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: AsciiString
Access: read-only
Description: This attribute indicates the calculated bit error rate on the link. Test data are generated and sent in frames of a preset size (frameSize). The Test component tries to estimate the number of bit errors in any errored frame which is identifiable. The statistics are updated accordingly. A lost frame (possibly due to an error on the flag sequence) is not used for the bit error rate calculation. The result is presented in the form of xEsyy, where x is the mantissa; and syy is the exponent, for example 0E+00, 2E-09. Note that the bitErrorRate is an estimate only. For more reliable test results, the test should be done over a long period. Multiple tests would also improve the confidence level of the test results.
This attribute is not displayed for ATM cards because the physical layer drops all errored frames at the controller interface.
What is lpImaTestBitErrorRate?
The calculated bit error rate for this IMA test, presented as a 5-character mantissa/exponent string like '0E+00' or '2E-09'; it's only an estimate, and the manual recommends longer or repeated tests for a more confident reading. Not displayed for ATM cards, which drop errored frames before the rate can be measured.
