Link OAM Loopback
Link OAM loopback is supported and can be enabled on the Ethernet port. Once
enabled, traffic received on the port is looped back to the port that initiated the remote
loopback.
To set Link OAM loopback:
set link-oam-loopback <eth-list: eth0|eth1|eth2> [status <value:
init|terminate>] [peer-request <value: ignore|process>]
To allow ports to enter loopback state (when receiving remote loopback initiation
command) the peer-request status should be set to
process
:
CLI>set link-oam-loopback eth0 peer-request process
To initiate loopback on remote port the loopback status should be set to
init
:
CLI>set link-oam-loopback eth0 status init
To view loopback settings:
CLI >show link-oam-loopback eth0
link-oam-loopback eth0 status : remote
link-oam-loopback eth0 peer-request : process
The
status
will change to
remote
on the port that initiated the loopback (i.e. sent the
request for loopback) and
local
on the port performing the loopback.
Use reset loopback command to stop the loopback and return to
status: none
;
CLI >reset link-oam-loopback eth0
CLI >show link-oam-loopback eth0
link-oam-loopback eth0 status : none
link-oam-loopback eth0 peer-request : process
