Like MX Discover, OAM Discover can also be used to discover far-end test units without manually configuring the local or remote
unit's destination address. If OAM is enabled on the TX300/e, any link partner that supports the IEEE 802.3ah protocol will be
discovered automatically and displayed under the
OAM Discover
tab. To access OAM Discover:
Go to
Throughput
>
OAM
>
Link
and tap on the 802.3ah check box to activate Link OAM. Select Active from the
OAM Mode
drop-down menu (only Active mode can send loop commands).
Tap on the
Control
button and select OAM Discover tab to see a list of discovered OAM devices. Select an OAM device and
press
Loop Up
to send a loop up command to the selected remote unit.
For detailed descriptions of Discovery Capabilities, Link Events, and Notification Settings, please see 15.6 Ethernet OAM Testing .
