TRANSMITTING LINK
TRACE MESSAGES
Use the Administration > CFM (Transmit Link Trace) page to transmit link
trace messages (LTMs). These messages can isolate connectivity faults by
tracing the path through a network to the designated target node (i.e., a
remote maintenance end point).
CLI REFERENCES
â—† "CFM Commands" on page 1311
COMMAND USAGE
â—† LTMs can be targeted to MEPs, not MIPs. Before sending a link trace
message, be sure you have configured the target MEP for the specified
MA (see "Configuring Remote Maintenance End Points").
â—† If MAC address of target MEP has not been learned by any local MEP,
then the linktrace may fail. Use the Show Remote MEP page (see
"Displaying Remote MEPs") to verify that a MAC address has been
learned for the target MEP.
