Total Access 5000 Business Services Deployment Guide
Create a MEP and Enable CCMs per MEP
The NetVanta NCTE allows MEPs to be created on the following interfaces: EFM‐group,
Ethernet, and Gigabit‐Ethernet. To create a MEP, type the appropriate command at the Global
Configuration prompt:
• interface efm-group 1/0/1
• interface ethernet 1/0/x (for ethernet port x)
NOTE
More than one EFM‐group can exist, but not against the Total Access 5000.
• interface gigabit-ethernet 1/0/1
NOTE
Gigabit‐ports are not present on all NetVanta 800‐series products.
To create a MEP and enable the CCMs per the MEP, complete the following procedure:
NOTE
EFM‐group MEPs should only be created with Component 1 MAs. Ethernet
and Gigabit‐Ethernet MEPs should only be created with Component 2 MAs.
1. From the Interface prompt, a MEP can be created or edited if previously created by typ‐
2. Enable continuity check messages (CCMs) for the MEP by typing ccm-enabled , and
3. Enable the MEP by typing no shutdown , and press E
4. Type exit , and press E
NCTE Ethernet OAM Example Using Component 1
In the following example, the user is creating a level 5 MD between two endpoints (NCTE A
and NCTE B) and a single MA operating on the Provider VID 1010. NCTE A has a MEP with
a MEPID of 2000 and NCTE B has a MEP with a MEPID of 2001. The CCM interval is not
explicitly configured so the default CCM interval of 1‐second will be used.
