3.11.3 OAM considerations
Ethernet CFM can be enabled on each individual path under an Ethernet ring. Only 
down MEPs can be configured on each of them and CCM sessions can be enabled 
to monitor the liveliness of the path using intervals of 100 msec.
Different CCM intervals can be supported on the path a and path b in an Ethernet 
ring. CFM is optional if the hardware supports Loss of Signal for example.
Up MEPs on service SAPs which multicast into the service and monitor the active 
path may be used to monitor services.
3.11.4 QinQ RAPS-Tag Considerations
From release R5.0.0.1, its possible to configure Double tagged (QinQ) Eth-ring path 
RAPS-Tag over an Dot1q encapsulated Ethernet port.
With respect to iHub’s behavior, whenever a QinQ Raps-Tag is configured, it sends 
out RAPS and CCM packets with double tags over the ring-ports.
Also iHub can receive double tagged RAPS and CCM packets from the peer-nodes, 
but always process the corresponding packets whose outer-vlan matches the control 
vlan; the inner vlan is never taken as input for validation or control plane processing.
The control vlan v-vpls configuration will remain singled tagged. 
This facility is introduced in R5.0.0.1 to allow interoperation with 1830 PSS switch 
which sends and receives only double tagged RAPS and CCM packets.
