To enable Ethernet OAM failover action on an EtherChannel interface, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Switch# configure terminal
Step 2
Switch(config)# interface port-channel
interface-id
Step 3
Switch(config-if)# switchport mode mode
Step 4
Switch(config-if)# ethernet oam link-monitor
high-threshold action failover
Step 5
Switch(config-if)# end
Step 6
Switch# show ethernet oam status [interface
]
interface-id
Step 7
Switch# copy running-config startup-config
The switch does not generate Link Fault or Critical Event OAM PDUs. However, if these PDUs are
received from a link partner, they are processed. The switch supports sending and receiving Dying Gasp
OAM PDUs when Ethernet OAM is disabled, the interface is shut down, the interface enters the

Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Defines an interface and enters interface configuration
mode.
Configures the mode of the EtherChannel interface.
Configures the Ethernet OAM remote-failure action on the
port channel interface to failover. This action is
configurable only for link monitoring RFI.
If failover is configured on the EtherChannel interface, the
interface is not error-disabled if it is the last member port
of the EtherChannel.
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Verifies the configuration.
(Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
