The following field  d esc rip tions p rovid e information on how to interp ret the 
Network Load  Hourly Traffic  rep ort and  the Network Load  Daily Traffic  rep ort.
Total Message Transmission Threshold
Exceptions
When a sub sc rib er send s a voic e messag e to a remote sub sc rib er, the system 
p lac es the messag e in a messag e queue and  DEFINITY AUDIX d ig ital 
networking  attempts to send  the message. When the total outg oing  q ueue 
exc eed s 150, the Total Messag e Transmission Threshold  Exc ep tions field  
inc reases b y one. If you see a larg e numb er in the Total Messag e Transmission 
Threshold  Exc ep tions field , d ig ital networking  has a p rob lem and  c annot transmit 
messag es. 
To c orrec t the p rob lem, c hec k the maintenanc e log  for alarms.  The p rob lems 
may b e oc c urring  d ue to fac ility p rob lems, an out-of-servic e remote system, or a
