ethernet lmi
Use the ethernet lmi global configuration command to configure enable Ethernet Local Management
Interface (E-LMI) and to configure the switch as a provider-edge (PE) or customer-edge (CE) device.
Use the no form of this command to disable E-LMI globally or to disable E-LMI CE.
ethernet lmi {ce | global}
no ethernet lmi {ce | global}
This command is available only if your switch is running the metro IP access or metro access image.
Syntax Description
Defaults Ethernet LMI is disabled. When enabled with the global keyword, by default the switch is a PR device.
Command Modes Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines Use ethernet lmi global command to enable E-LMI globally. Use ethernet lmi ce command to enable
the switch as E-LMI CE device.
Ethernet LMI is disabled by default on an interface and must be explicitly enabled by entering the
ethernet lmi interface interface configuration command. The ethernet lmi global command enables
Ethernet LMI in PE mode on all interfaces for an entire device. The benefit of this command is that you
can enable Ethernet LMI on all interfaces with one command instead of enabling Ethernet LMI
separately on each interface. To enable the interface in CE mode, you must also enter the ethernet lmi
ce global configuration command.
To disable Ethernet LMI on a specific interface after you have entered the ethernet lmi global command,
enter the no ethernet lmi interface interface configuration command.
The sequence in which you enter the ethernet lmi interface interface configuration and ethernet lmi
global global configuration commands is important. The latest command entered overrides the prior
command entered.
ce Enable the switch as an E-LMI CE device.
Note Ethernet LMI is disabled by default. You must enable it globally or
on an interface in addition to enabling it in CE mode.
global Enable E-LMI globally on the switch. By default, the switch is a PE device.
