This issue occurs at the time of the SRP switch. After the SRP switch, SSCC does not restore the interface active counter value. So, the value of the interface active counter turns to zero (with subscribers still being up). When the subscriber goes down, the counter value gets decremented, goes to negative, and a huge value is noticed.
