How to understand the output from show controllers t1 call-counters

[dagates]

When the command show controllers t1 call-counters is issued what does the DS0's Active and DS0's Active High Water Mark numbers mean? Are these numbers all calls, including authenticated and non-authenticated, or just authenticated? i.e. If I use my phone and call one of the DS0s should the count go up or will the count go up only if I could authenticate?

The controller stats should not depend on authentication, or any layer 2 activity. The stats should apply to all inbound calls. So a phone call should increment the active count by 1 (temporarily, until you disconnect) and the high water mark should be incremented if, at that moment, the total amount of calls is the high mark (the highest number of simultaneous calls for that particular controller).
