What does this 4% and 0% percent mean; what i can understand that there is 1
packed loss so there is 4% in the paranthesis but what does that 0%
mean....if there is no problem then why it is displayed in the output.....

Secondly does it states any problem in the media or config i means any kind
of packet loss because we are doing this testing for one customer and we had
already tested the media and config found no issue.

Here is my mrm config:

ip mrm manager test10
 manager FastEthernet0/1 group 239.2.3.4
 senders 5
 receivers 10 sender-list 5

access-list 5 permit 10.120.50.125
access-list 12 permit 10.117.251.4

Please let me know what i can do to overcome this..

Regards
Sunil
