About Ethernet OAM Protocol
The Ethernet OAM protocol for installing, monitoring, and troubleshooting Metro Ethernet networks
and Ethernet WANs relies on an optional sublayer in the data link layer of the OSI model. Normal link
operation does not require Ethernet OAM. You can implement Ethernet OAM on any full-duplex
point-to-point or emulated point-to-point Ethernet link for a network or part of a network (specified
interfaces).
OAM frames, called OAM protocol data units (OAM PDUs) use the slow protocol destination MAC
address 0180.c200.0002. They are intercepted by the MAC sublayer and cannot propagate beyond a
single hop within an Ethernet network. Ethernet OAM is a relatively slow protocol, with a maximum
transmission rate of 10 frames per second, resulting in minor impact to normal operations. However,
because the CPU must poll error counters frequently, when you enable link monitoring, the number of
required CPU cycles is proportional to the number of interfaces that must be polled.
