A carrier transition is a when the carrier signal on a serial interface
changes state. This can include going from down -> up and from up -> down.
If you have gotten 2000 in a second or so, you most likely have a
extremely bad data circuit.
This can be caused by your CSU/DSU or the circuit itself. I would swap the
CSU/DSU, the cable between it and the cisco and even tell your circuit
provider about the problem. A good test may be to put your CSU/DSU in local
loop and see if you can ping yourself out the bad interface. This can
eliminate the CSU/DSU and the cable as part of the problem.
