atmSigEmitMsgErrors

Number of Incorrect Messages transmitted on this interface.
The Incorrect Messages Counter reflects any sort of incorrect
information in a message.  This includes:
              
- RELEASE, RELEASE COMPLETE, ADD PARTY REJECT,
  and STATUS messages transmitted or
  received, that contain any of the Cause values
  listed below.
              
- Ignored messages.  These messages are dropped
  because the message was so damaged that it could
  not be further processed.  A list of dropped
  messages is compiled below:
              
   1.  Message with invalid protocol discriminator
              
   2.  Message with errors in the call reference I.E.
        - Bits 5-8 of the first octet not equal to
          '0000'
        - Bits 1-4 of the first octet indicating a
          length other than 3 octets
        - RELEASE COMPLETE message received with a
          call reference that does not relate to a
          call active or in progress
        - SETUP message received with call reference
          flag incorrectly set to 1
        - SETUP message received with a call
          reference for a call that is already
          active or in progress.
              
   3.  Message too short
              
The following cause values are monitored by this counter
(Note: These cause values apply to both UNI3.0 and UNI3.1
unless otherwise stated):
              
Cause Value     Meaning
              
   10     VPCI/VCI unacceptable (UNI3.0 only)
   36     VPCI/VCI assignment failure (UNI3.1 only)
   81     invalid call reference value
   82     identified channel does not exist
   89     invalid endpoint reference
   96     mandatory information element is missing
   97     message type non-existent or not
          implemented
   99     information element non-existent or not
          implemented
   100    invalid information element contents
   101    message not compatible with call state
   104    incorrect message length
   111    protocol error, unspecified
              
   NOTE:  For this counter, RELEASE COMPLETE messages that are
   a reply to a previous RELEASE message and contain the same
   cause value, are redundant (for counting purposes) and
   should not be counted.
