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 configures the maximum number of peer maintenance end points (MEPs). It does not limit
the number of local MEPs. The configured maximum-meps number must be at least as great as the number
of configured crosscheck MEPs.
The maximum-meps number limits the number of peer MEPs, for which local MEPs store continuity-check
messages (CCMs). When the limit is reached, CCMs from any new peer MEPs are ignored, but CCMs from
existing peer MEPs continue to be processed normally.
The maximum-meps number also limits the size of the CCM learning database.
