21.21 ATP Category Timings
The following table shows the settings applied for event timeouts, polling intervals (active and non-
active) and polling timeouts (active and non-active) for each ATP category. For the purpose of Ethernet,
polling interval and retry interval are identical. To reduce costs related to GPRS calls, the interval and
retry interval for GPRS paths differ, for example, Cat 3 [Modem] polls once every 25 minutes and
thereafter it polls every 60s for 5 minutes until it times out after 30 minutes. For a visual overview of the
configured polling interval, go to Status > FlexC > Network Log.
If an ATP is up and active and then goes down, it will remain on active polling rates for two more
polling cycles before converting to the ATP Down polling intervals.
