Cisco Cable Spectrum Flap Hits

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.114.1.1.5.1.5

The number of times the CMTS receives the Ranging request from the Cable Modem. The CMTS issues a Station Maintenance transmit opportunity at a typical rate of once every 10 seconds and waits for a Ranging request from the Cable Modem.If the CMTS receives a Ranging request then the Hit count will be increased by 1 If the FlapTotal count is high,both Hits and Misses counts are high, and other counters are relatively low then the flapping is probably caused by the modem going up and down. The Hits and Misses counts are keep-alive polling statistics. The Hits count should be much greater than the Misses count Discontinuites in the value of this counter can occur if this entry is removed from the table and then re-added, and are indicated by a change in the value of ccsFlapCreateTime.
