Margin (SNR Margin), and the Power (Power) of each
upstream and downstream band in the VDSL spectrum.
HLOG
The HLOG graph shows the attenuation per channel

information is obtained when the modem and the
DSLAM train up and can show issues with attenuation
or bridge taps. The horizontal axis is the bin index, and
the vertical axis is the attenuation value in dB.
