Establishing the Configuration Task
Before configuring basic EFM functions, familiarize yourself with the usage scenario, complete
the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data.
Applicable Environment
Ethernet was originally used in LANs that have low reliability and stability requirements. There
is no effective management and maintenance mechanisms for Ethernet, hindering the usage of
Ethernet in MANs and WANs. To solve this problem, Ethernet OAM is introduced.
Hierarchical Ethernet OAM is provided based on the network architecture. EFM is link-level
OAM and addresses common first-mile link issues. On the network shown in
, EFM
is enabled on the devices at both ends of a point-to-point link to monitor link connectivity,
ensuring reliability and stability of network connections.

Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring basic EFM functions, complete the following task:
l
Connecting interfaces and setting their physical parameters to ensure that the interfaces are
physically Up
Data Preparation
To configure basic EFM functions, you need the following data.
No.
Data
1
EFM modes of interfaces
2
(Optional) EFM packet parameters such as the maximum OAMPDU size and
interval at which OAMPDUs are received
Enabling EFM Globally
Enabling EFM globally is the prerequisite for configuring basic EFM functions.
