Configuring basic Ethernet OAM functions

To set up an Ethernet OAM connection between two Ethernet OAM entities, you must set at least one
entity to operate in active mode. An Ethernet OAM entity can initiate OAM connection only in active
mode.
To change the Ethernet OAM mode on an Ethernet OAM-enabled port, first disable Ethernet OAM on the
port.
To configure basic Ethernet OAM functions:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Ethernet interface view.
3. Set the Ethernet OAM mode.
4. Enable Ethernet OAM.
