25 Ethernet OAM Commands

Service provider networks are large and complex with a wide user base, and they often involve different
operators that must work together in order to provide end-to-end services to enterprise customers. Opera-
tions, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) provides service assurance over a converged network that
service providers are looking for in an Ethernet network. Ethernet OAM addresses areas such as availabil-
ity, mean time to repair and more. Ethernet OAM focuses on two main areas that are most in need by
service providers and are rapidly evolving in the standards bodies, Service OAM and Link OAM. These
two OAM protocols have unique objectives but are complementary to each other. Service OAM provides
monitoring and troubleshooting of end-to-end Ethernet service instances, while Link OAM allows a
provider to monitor and troubleshoot an individual Ethernet link.
MIB information for the Ethernet OAM commands is as follows:
Filename: AlcatelIND1Eoam.MIB
Module: Alcatel-IND1-ETHERNET-OAM-MIB
Filename: IETF_802_1ag.MIB (Compliant to draft 7.0)
Module: IEEE8021-CFM-MIB
