OAM testing
Stinger® Administration Guide 12-3
Overview of the oam command
You can use the oam command to run F4 and F5 OAM loopback and continuity check
tests and to display OAM entries. You use the command as follows:
To run loopback tests, use the following command syntax:
oam -L slot port vpi |- l slot port vpi [ vci ] e | s cell-count
To run continuity tests, use the following command syntax:
oam -C slot port vpi | -c slot port vpi [ vci ] e | s + | -
To display OAM entries in a Stinger system, use the oam -e command. Its syntax
is as follows:
oam -e [ slot ] [ port ] [ vpi ] [ vci ]| -p
To display a subset of the entries reported by the OAM queries, use the oam -q
command. Its syntax is as follows:
oam -q fault normal | fault ais | fault rdi | fault loc | cc generating |
cc monitoring | cc activating | cc deactivating
The following table explains the elements of the command:
