Use the ethernet oam remote-failure interface configuration or configuration template command to
configure Ethernet operations, maintenance, and administration (EOM) remote failure indication. Use
the no form of this command to remove the configuration.

Command Modes Ethernet service configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines You can apply this command to an Ethernet OAM template and to an interface. The interface
configuration takes precedence over template configuration. To enter OAM template configuration
mode, use the template template-name global configuration command.
You can configure an error-disable action to occur if the remote link goes down, if the remote device is
disabled, or if the remote device disables Ethernet OAM on the interface.
The Catalyst 3750 Metro switch does not generate Link Fault or Critical Event OAM PDUs. However,
if these PDUs are received from a link partner, they are processed. The switch supports generating and
receiving Dying Gasp OAM PDUs when Ethernet OAM is disabled, the interface is shut down, the
interface enters the error-disabled state, or the switch is reloading. It can respond to, but not generate,
Dying Gasp PDUs based on loss of power.

critical-event Configure the switch to put an interface in error-disabled mode when an
unspecified critical event has occurred.
dying-gasp Configure the switch to put an interface in error-disabled mode when an
unrecoverable condition has occurred.
link-fault Configure the switch to put an interface in error-disabled mode when the
receiver detects a loss of power.
