Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task
IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator
for assistance.
This command enables AIS for all MEPs in the service. AIS messages are triggered by the following events:
•
Detection of a CCM defect.
•
Detection of a missing peer MEP (when cross-check is configured).
•
Receipt of AIS or LCK messages.
•
Detection of interface down events (for down MEPs only).
