Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus for selecting frame loss measures are disclosed. In one aspect, a Synthetic Loss Measurement (SLM) report for a given interval for a network managed entity that includes at least two network nodes is received. A Loss Measurement Message (LMM) report for a given interval for the network managed entity is received. For the given interval and from the SLM and LMM reports, a reporting measurement for the network managed entity is selected based, at least in part, on a frame rate of data transmitted over the network managed entity during the given interval or an occurrence of a specified network event during the given interval. Frame loss information for the given interval for the network managed entity based on the selected reporting measurement is reported.
