423
configure cfm domain association add intermediate-
point
configure cfm domain <domain_name> association <association_name> ports
<port_list> add intermediate-point
Description
Configures the maintenance intermediate points (MIPs) for that MA. MIPs do not send CCMs nor
collect or store CCM information; MIPs are used as a hop when a Layer 2 tracereroute frame passes
through the port.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
These ports must already be in the MA (VLAN) prior to assigning a MEP function to them. If you try to
assign a port not in the MA as an end-point, the system returns the following message:
The following port(s) <portlist> are not part of the associations VLAN.
NOTE
If you are running MAC-in-MAC on that port or an untagged vMAN port, you cannot use that port as an MP for
802.1ag.
Not all combinations of MPS are allowed on the same port within an MA; only the following
combinations can be on the same port within an MA:
●
inward-facing MEP and MIP
●
inward-facing MEP and outward-facing MEP
●
outward-facing MEP and MIP
You can configure a total of 32 MIPs on a single switch.
Use the
show cfm
command to verify your configuration.
domain_name
Enter the domain associated with the MA you are configuring.
