Cisco Cable Spectrum Flap Power Adjustment Number

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.114.1.1.5.1.17

The number of times the Cable Modem upstream transmit power is adjusted during station maintenance. When the adjustment is greater than the power adjustment threshold the number will be incremented. The power adjustment threshold is chosen in an implementation-dependent manner The Flap number (ccsFlapTotalNum) will be incremented when this object is incremented. If ccsFlapTotalNum is high, ccsFlapPowerAdjustmentNum is high but the Hit and Miss are low and ccsFlapInsertionFailNum are low then the flapping is probably caused by an improper transmit power level setting at the modem end. This object can indicate: Amplifier degradation, Poor connections, or Wind, moisture, or temperature sensitivity. This object is going to replace the object ccsFlapPowerAdjustments and the value of this object can be reset to zero if this entry is removed from the table and then re-added, or if a user resets all the statistical objects for this entry. The value of the object ccsFlapLastResetTime indicates the last reset time.
