Description 
This command is used to configure the parameters of a maintenance association. The MEP list 
specified for an MA can be located in different devices. MEPs must be created on the ports of 
these devices explicitly. An MEP will transmit a CCM packet periodically across the MA. The 
receiving MEP will verify these received CCM packets from the other MEPs against this MEP list 
for the configuration integrity check.
