Chapter 75 Configuring Ethernet OAM and CFM
Enabling and Configuring Ethernet OAM
Enabling Ethernet OAM on an Interface
To enable Ethernet OAM on an interface, perform this task:
Enter the
no ethernet oam
interface configuration command to disable Ethernet OAM on the interface.
This example shows how to set basic OAM parameters on the switch:
Switch(config)#
int gi1/3
Switch(config-if)#
ethernet oam
Switch(config-if)#
ethernet oam max-rate 9
Switch(config-if)#
ethernet oam mode passive
Switch(config-if)#
end
Switch#
show ethernet oam status int gi1/2
GigabitEthernet1/2

Command
Purpose
Step 1
Switch#
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
Switch(config)#
interface
interface-id
Defines an interface to configure as an EOM interface, and
enters interface configuration mode.
Step 3
Switch(config-if)#

Configures these optional OAM parameters:
•
(Optional) Enter
max-rate
oampdus
to configure the
maximum number of OAM PDUs sent per second. The
range is from 1 to 10.
•
(Optional) Enter
min-rate
seconds
to configure the
minimum transmission rate in seconds when one OAM
PDU is sent per second. The range is from 1 to 10.
•
(Optional) Enter
mode active
to set OAM client mode
to active.
active
is the default.
•

•
(Optional) Enter
timeout
seconds
to set a time for
OAM client timeout. The range is from 2 to 30.
Step 5
Switch(config-if)#
end
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
Switch#
show ethernet oam status
[
