Matrix: Trunk Usage Statistics (Intelligent Linking Level Statistics)
Every 10mins, every matrix frame in the system with at least one trunk configured will provide a trunk usage report to the event log. The report is from the frame's own perspective.
The following is an excerpt from the event log of (Sys 1). (Sys 1) is part of an 8 frame linked set.
The report is split into two sections: Non-Fibre Trunks (Analog, MADI, IP, etc.) and Fibre Trunks.

Let's take the first line from the Non-Fibre section to use as an example for the explanation:
23/10/24 11:16:57.513: 97|Non-Fibre TX (pool): Sys 2: Current 14, Peak (10min) 14, Mean (10min) 14, Peak (red) 25, Total 32, 3 |
|---|
Non-Fibre TX: This line shows the statistics for trunks from (Sys 1) to (Sys 2).
Currently in use: 14
Max used in last 10 mins: 14
Average in last 10 mins: 14
Max used since last red reset: 25
Total available: 32
Note. There appears to be an issue with the calculation for the Mean usage which makes it an unreliable metric. Advised not to use this value.
Now let's look at the eighth line of the same section:
23/10/24 11:16:57.513: 04|Non-Fibre RX (pool): Sys 2: Current 4, Peak (10min) 4, Mean (10min) 3, Peak (red) 8, Total 32, 3 |
|---|
Non-Fibre RX: This line shows the statistics for trunks to (Sys 1) from (Sys 2).
Fibre Trunks. Now, the fibre trunking section. First line:
Currently in use: 4
Max used in last 10 mins: 14
Average in last 10 mins: 14
Max used since last red reset: 25
Total available: 32
Note. There appears to be an issue with the calculation for the Mean usage which makes it an unreliable metric. Advised not to use this value.
23/10/24 11:16:57.514: 09|Fibre TX (pool to all): Current 4, Peak (10min) 4, Mean (10min) 4, Peak (red) 10, Total 128, 3 |
|---|
Fibre TX: This line shows the statistics for trunks from (Sys1) to the fibre ring (all other fibre linked matrices).
23/10/24 11:16:57.514: 10|Fibre RX (pool): Sys 6: Current 26, Peak (10min) 26, Mean (10min) 0, Peak (red) 40, Total 128, 3 |
|---|
Fibre RX: This line shows the statistics for trunks to (Sys1) from (Sys 6) on the fibre ring (this example system only has Sys 1 and Sys 6 fibre linked, so only Sys 6 is shown here under RX).
-------------------
The Trunk Usage Statistics are reported in the event log of every frame configured with at least one trunk, every 10 mins.
The same report can also be invoked via HCI using the “Request Trunk Usage Statistics” (msg ID = 0x0170) and “Reply Trunk Usage Statistics” (msg ID = 0x0171) messages.
