● Rejected frames per sec (*10) – is the number of frames rejected per second over
the five-second reporting interval, multiplied by 10.
● Retransmitted frames per sec (*10) – is the number of frames retransmitted per
second over the five-second reporting interval, multiplied by 10. If the value is
consistently greater than zero and there are no other problems, you should
increase the
T1 timer ( Retransmission Period ) in the Port record.
Configuring RLP Statistics Thresholds
For each RLP statistic, you can specify a threshold that, when crossed, causes an alarm
to be sent to the collecting node.
Press [A] at the Statistics Menu. When prompted for a Statistic level , press [Enter] ,
accepting the default of L (for RLP). A menu similar to the following figure will be
displayed.

Changing a threshold changes the database value. Press [F7] to write the
change to system memory.
A threshold is either a number or a percentage, depending on the statistic. The valid
range for any statistic is
0–65535 . (Default = 0. ) When the measured value for the sta-
tistic crosses the threshold (in either direction), an alarm is generated.
