uni-directional link-fault detection
To enable detection of a local, unidirectional link fault and send notification of that fault to an Ethernet OAM
peer, use the
uni-directional link-fault detection
command in Ethernet OAM configuration mode or interface
Ethernet OAM configuration mode. To remove the configuration from a profile and return to the default, or
to remove the override configuration at an interface, use the
no
form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task
IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator
for assistance.
This command does not affect how the receipt of link-fault messages are handled by the router. Actions to be
taken for the receipt of link-fault messages are configured using the
action uni-directional link-fault
command.
Consider the following guidelines when configuring the
uni-directional link-fault detection
command:
•
You can configure unidirectional link-fault detection for multiple interfaces that share a similar
configuration using the command within an Ethernet OAM profile and attaching the profile to the
interfaces to which it applies.
•
You can override the profile configuration for unidirectional link-fault detection using the command in
interface Ethernet OAM configuration.
•
The
disable
keyword is only available in interface Ethernet OAM configuration mode, and it allows
you to override the feature set by the profile, and disable it for a particular interface. For example, if
unidirectional link-fault detection is enabled within a profile that is attached to an interface, you can
