8.2.11 Example for configuring CFM
Networking requirements
As shown in Figure 8-5, the PC communicates with the server through the network consisting
of by Switch A, Switch B and Switch C. You can deploy CFM feature on Switch Device to
realize active fault detection, acknowledgement and location, then make Ethernet link
between PC and Server achieving telecommunication service level. Switch A and Switch C
are MEP, Switch B is MIP, detecting Ethernet fault from Switch A Port 1 to Switch C Port 2,
maintenance domain level is 3.

Configuration steps
Step 1 Configure interface adding into VLAN.
Configure Switch A.
Alpha-A28E#hostname SwitchA
SwitchA#config
SwitchA(config)#create vlan 100 active
SwitchA(config)#interface port 1
SwitchA(config-port)#switchport access vlan 100
SwitchA(config-port)#exit
SwitchA(config)#interface port 2
SwitchA(config-port)#switchport mode trunk
SwitchA(config-port)#exit
Configure Switch B.
Alpha-A28E#hostname SwitchB
SwitchB#config
SwitchB(config)#interface port 1
SwitchB(config-port)#switchport mode trunk
SwitchB(config-port)#exit
SwitchB(config)#interface port 2
