Ethernet OAM configuration example

Network requirements
On the network shown in
Enable Ethernet OAM on Switch A and Switch B to auto-detect link errors between the two devices

Monitor the performance of the link between Switch A and Switch B by collecting statistics about the

error frames received by Switch A

Switch A
Configuration procedure
Configure Switch A.
1.
# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to operate in passive Ethernet OAM mode and enable Ethernet
OAM for it.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam mode passive
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam enable
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
# Set the errored frame detection interval to 20 seconds and set the errored frame event triggering
threshold to 10.
[SwitchA] oam errored-frame period 20
[SwitchA] oam errored-frame threshold 10
Configure Switch B.
2.
# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to operate in active Ethernet OAM mode (the default) and enable
Ethernet OAM for it.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[SwitchB-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam mode active
Use the command...
display oam link-event { local | remote } [
interface interface-type interface-number ] [ | {
begin | exclude | include } regular-expression
]
display oam { local | remote } [ interface
interface-type interface-number ] [ | { begin |
exclude | include } regular-expression ]
reset oam [ interface interface-type interface-
number ]
2, perform the following operations:
