Configuring CFM on a Port as a Maintenance Point
To enable or disable CFM on a port and to configure a port as a Maintenance End Point (MEP) and
Maintenance Intermediate Point (MIP) for a specific maintenance level and VLAN, perform this task in
privileged mode:
This example shows how to initialize an MEP at module 1, port 1, for VLAN 10:
Console> (enable) set port ethernet-cfm 1/1 mep mpid 1 domain XYZ vlan 10
MEP is configured for port 1/1 with MPID 1 in domain XYZ for vlan10.
Console> (enable)
This example shows how to initialize an MIP at module 1, port 1 at MIP level 5:
Console> (enable) set port ethernet-cfm 1/1 mip level 5 vlan 10
MIP is configured for port 1/1 at level 5 for vlan(s)10.
Console> (enable)
Configuring Continuity-Check Protocol Parameters
To configure continuity-check message attributes for a specific level of the local Maintenance End Points
(MEPs), perform this task in privileged mode:
This example shows how to configure continuity-check message attributes for level 5, VLAN ID 11 at
an interval of 1 minute and a loss threshold of three messages:
Console> (enable) set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level 5 vlan 11 interval 2
loss-threshold 3
CC Attributes set for level(s)5
Console> (enable)
This example shows how to enable the continuity-check protocol for a particular maintenance
association or VLAN at a specific level:
Console> (enable) set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level 4 vlan 100
Task Command
Step 1
Configure Ethernet CFM on a
specific module and port or set the
port to transparent mode.
set port ethernet-cfm mod/port {enable | disable | transparent}
Step 2
Configure a port as an MEP and
configure an MPID for a specific
maintenance level.
set port ethernet-cfm mod/port mep mpid mpid domain
domain-name vlan vlan-id
Step 3
Configure an MIP for a specific
domain or a specific maintenance
level.
set port ethernet-cfm mod/port mip level level vlan vlan-id
Task Command
Configure continuity-check message attributes for
a specific level of MEPs.
set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level level
vlan vlans interval interval-value
[loss-threshold threshold]
