Step 12
continuity-check loss-threshold threshold-value
(Optional) Set the number of continuity check messages to

is 2 to 255; the default is 3.
Step 13
maximum meps value
(Optional) Configure the maximum number of MEPs

none—Do not include information in the sender ID.
Step 15
mip auto-create [lower-mep-only | none]
(Optional) Configure auto creation of MIPs for the service.
•
lower-mep-only—Create a MIP only if there is a MEP
for the service in another domain at the next lower
active level.
•
none —No MIP auto-create.
Step 16
exit
Return to ethernet-cfm configuration mode.
Step 17
mip auto-create [lower-mep-only]
(Optional) Configure auto creation of MIPs for the domain.
•
lower-mep-only—Create a MIP only if there is a MEP
for the service in another domain at the next lower
active level.
Step 18
mep archive-hold-time minutes
(Optional) Set the number of minutes that data from a

Step 21
switchport mode trunk
(Optional) Configure the port as a trunk port.
Step 22
