Defining CFM Structures
– 1330 –
ma-name – Maintenance association name. (Range: 1-43
alphanumeric characters)
up – Indicates that the MEP faces inward toward the switch cross-
connect matrix, and transmits CFM messages towards, and receives
them from, the direction of the internal bridge relay mechanism. If
the up keyword is not included in this command, then the MEP is
facing away from the switch, and transmits CFM messages towards,
and receives them from, the direction of the physical medium.
DEFAULT SETTING
No MEPs are configured.
The MEP faces outward (down).
COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
COMMAND USAGE
â—† CFM elements must be configured in the following order: (1)
maintenance domain at the same level as the MEP to be configured
(using the ethernet cfm domain command), (2) maintenance
association within the domain (using the ma index name command),
and (3) finally the MEP using this command.
â—† An interface may belong to more than one domain. This command can
be used to configure an interface as a MEP for different MAs in different
domains.
◆ To change the MEP’s MA or the direction it faces, first delete the MEP,
and then create a new one.
EXAMPLE
This example sets port 1 as a DSAP for the specified maintenance
association.
