OAM Configuration

OAM CONFIGURATION
The switch provides OAM (Operation, Administration, and Maintenance)
remote management tools required to monitor and maintain the links to
subscriber CPEs (Customer Premise Equipment). This section describes
functions including enabling OAM for selected ports, loopback testing, and
displaying remote device information.
ENABLING OAM ON
LOCAL PORTS
Use the Administration > OAM > Interface page to enable OAM
functionality on the selected port. Not all CPEs support operation and
maintenance functions, so OAM is therefore disabled by default. If a CPE
supports OAM, this functionality must first be enabled on the connected
port to gain access to the configuration functions provided under the OAM
menu.
