Ethernet thresholds
Name: A text string that identifies the Ethernet threshold
IAT:MLR error:
This threshold contains error limits for IAT (Inter-packet Arrival Time) and MLR
(Media Loss Rate).
The IAT limit is the first parameter (before the colon), the MLR limit is the last
parameter. If the IAT limit is exceeded the alarm ‘IAT >= err-thresh’ will be raised.
If the MLR limit is exceeded the alarm ‘MLR >= err-thresh’ will be raised. The
severity (and hence the color used in the MediaWindow view) for IAT:MLR errors
depend on the severity assigned to these alarms in the
Alarms — Alarm setup
view.
Note that error seconds based on MLR are counted regardless of this threshold
if one or more packets are missing.
IAT:MLR warning:
This threshold contains warning limits for IAT (Inter-packet Arrival Time) and
MLR (Media Loss Rate).
The IAT limit is the first parameter (before the colon), the MLR limit is the last
parameter. If the IAT limit is exceeded the alarm ‘IAT >= warn-thresh’ will be
raised. If the MLR limit is exceeded the alarm ‘MLR >= warn-thresh’ will be
raised. The severity (and hence the color used in the MediaWindow view) for
IAT:MLR errors depend on the severity assigned to these alarms in the
Alarms
— Alarm setup view.
Max bitrate:
The maximum bitrate in Mbit/s. An alarm will be raised if the stream bitrate
exceeds the maximum bitrate.
Min bitrate:
The minimum bitrate in Mbit/s. A value of 0 will never generate an alarm. A
value of 0.1 Mbit/s will generate an alarm if the minimum bitrate threshold is less
than 0.1 Mbit/s.
No signal:
Number of milliseconds without receiving any signal before the ‘No signal’ alarm
is raised
