Hello,

I have an ATM DS3 coming through a PA-A3-T3. The last few days it would abruptly go down for 5-10 minutes, perhaps every 12 hours on average. During these times, the interface would show rapidly growing carrier signal loss (about 10-20/sec.) I also saw incrementing FEBE errors. However, neither the provider, nor a third-party transport provider was detecting LOS on the line. However, the far side did see a relatively small number of FEBE errors. I swapped the interface and it's been quiet for last few hours, though it remains to be seen if that's the last of the issue. Does this make sense to anybody? I don't understand why an erroring PA would detect LOS without LOS being present. Could it have been bouncing in and out of loopback?
