TIMEMARK is a telnet enhancement and here's what the manual says: - By specifying a new profile statement, you can direct Telnet to end SNA Telnet sessions that are unresponsive. This reduces the number of reconnect failures caused when Telnet still has a SNA session for the original connection. When a new connection request is received, the check client connection function sends a *TIMEMARK* value to every pre-existing connection associated with the client identifier of the new connection that is being established. If a response is not received, the connection is ended.
The other thins that's interesting is the LUNAME and if it has the word MULTIPLE it means that more than one connection was dropped for the same reason within a 15 second interval. The MULTIPLE count is 412, there's also 472 that have an actual LUNAME of TELNEnnn (the E before the nnn stands for external) and 33 that have a LUNAME of TELNInnn (I stands for internal [at my location]).
