Usage Guidelines
• LINK OAM must be enabled globally for the OAM to be functional on all the ports.
• If LINK OAM is disabled for the port or globally disabled for the switch, any OAMPDUs received are
discarded.
• When LINK OAM is disabled for the port, all dynamically learned information on the port, including
peer information, is deleted. However, the LINK OAM configuration for the port is retained.
• LINK OAM is not supported on the mirroring ports.
• In link aggregates, LINK OAM is supported on an individual aggregable port only.
