Usage
A Maintenance Domain is a Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) term that
represents the administrative area of a network from which an operator can
manage VLANs that traverse their area. An MD can also be scoped to a simple
Ethernet link. To differentiate different administrative areas, an MD is made up of a
name and a level. As part of CFM, a Connectivity Check Message (CCM) is used to
detect Ethernet connectivity faults amongst nodes that participate in CFM. CCM
messages carry the MD name within the MAID field as well as carries the level of
the MD.
This command is used to configure the MD name, which can be chosen from a
variety of name format types, as well as the level.
Example
To create a Maintenance Domain instance named “MD-INST2” with a character
string-based name of “MD-12L3” and a level of 3, use the command:
awplus(config)#
ethernet cfm domain-name MD-INST2 md-type
character-string md-type-name MD-12L3 level 3
To enter Ethernet CFM Configuration mode for an existing MD instance named
“MD-INST2”, use the command:
awplus(config)#
ethernet cfm domain-name MD-INST2
awplus(config-ether-cfm)#
To destroy a Maintenance Domain instance named “MD-INST2”, use the
command:
awplus(config)#
no ethernet cfm domain-name MD-INST2

Commands
mac
Specify the md-type as MAC-based MD name format. The
<md-type-name> consists of a MAC a 2-octet
(unsigned) integer in the form of HHHH.HHHH.HHHH:<2-octet
integer>. This MAC based string plus the Short MA name that
is configured for an MA make up the MAID field in a CCM
message.
no-name
Specify the md-type whereby no MD name is to appear in the
CCM message.
level
Specify the Level the Domain operates in.
<level>
0 to 7.
mip-creation
Optional parameter that specifies the MIP creation permission
value.
none
Specifies that no MIPs are to be created (default and only
choice).
