23.2.3 CFM settings (same domain/multiple MA)

This section describes the procedure for setting multiple MAs in a single domain by using switch A in the following figure as an example.

Figure 23-32: Sample CFM configuration (same domain/multiple MA)

<Structure of this section>

(1) Configuring Several MA in the Same Domain

Points to note: When you set multiple MAs in the same domain, make sure that there is no duplication of MA identification numbers and MA names. For basic domain and MA configuration points, see 23.2.2 CFM Configuration (Multiple Domains).

Command examples

(config)# ethernet cfm domain level 6 direction-up

(config-ether-cfm)# domain name str customer_6

Sets the initial state of the domain level and the MEPs as up MEPs, switches to configuration Ethernet CFM mode, and sets the domain name.
(config-ether-cfm)# ma 1 name str ma1_vlan100

(config-ether-cfm)# ma 1 vlan-group 10,20,100 primary-vlan 100

(config-ether-cfm)# ma 2 name str ma2_vlan200

(config-ether-cfm)# ma 2 vlan-group 30,40,200 primary-vlan 200

(config-ether-cfm)# exit

Sets the MA identification number, the MA name, the VLANs belonging to the MA, and the primary VLAN.

Points to note: MEPs must be set for each MA. An MIP is shared by the MAs, and one MEP is set for each port. For basic MEP and MIP configuration points, see 23.2.2 CFM Configuration (Multi-Domain).

Command examples

(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

(config-if)# ethernet cfm mep level 6 ma 1 mep-id 101

(config-if)# ethernet cfm mep level 6 ma 2 mep-id 201

(config-if)# exit

(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 1/0/2-4

(config-if-range)# ethernet cfm mip level 6

(config-if-range)# exit

Sets MEP that belongs to the domain-level 6,MA1 on port 1/0/1. Also, sets a MEP belonging to MA2, Configures domain-level 6 MIP for ports 1/0/2 through 1/0/4.
(config)# ethernet cfm enable

Initiates operation of the CFM functionality on the Switch.
