Configuring Ethernet CFM
Use the no form of each command to remove a configuration or to return to the default settings.
Configuring IP SLAs CFM Operation
You can manually configure an individual IP SLAs Ethernet ping or jitter echo operation or you can
configure IP SLAs Ethernet operation with endpoint discovery. You can also configure multiple
operation scheduling. For accurate one-way delay statistics, the clocks on the endpoint switches must be
synchronized. You can configure the endpoint switches with Network Time Protocol (NTP) so that the
switches are synchronized to the same clock source.
For more information about configuring IP SLAs Ethernet operation, see the IP SLAs for Metro-Ethernet
feature module at this URL:

For detailed information about configuring IP SLAs operations, see the Cisco IOS IP SLAs
Configuration Guide, Release 12.4T at this URL:

Manually Configuring an IP SLAs CFM Probe or Jitter Operation
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to manually configure an IP SLAs Ethernet echo
(ping) or jitter operation:
Step 8
ethernet cfm alarm notification {all | error-xcon |
mac-remote-error-xcon | none | remote-error-xcon
| xcon}
(Optional) Enable Ethernet CFM fault alarm notification
for the specified defects on the interface.
Note
The Ethernet CFM interface MEP alarm
configuration takes precedence over the global
configuration.
Step 9
ethernet cfm alarm {delay value | reset value}
(Optional) Set an alarm delay period or a reset period.
Note
The Ethernet CFM interface MEP alarm
configuration takes precedence over the global
configuration.
Step 10
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 11
show running-config
Verify your entries.
Step 12
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
