4.10 Fault Verification on the Ethernet

By sending detection packets and waiting for replies, you can test connectivity of the path
between devices.

4.10.1 Establishing the Configuration Task

Applicable Environment
When you need to check connectivity between two devices manually, you can configure the
local device to send test packets and wait response packets on the local device to check whether
the remote device is reachable. Based on the type of the link to be tested, you can adopt the
following methods to check the link connectivity:
l
l
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before performing 802.1ag MAC ping, complete the following task:
l
Data Preparation
To test connectivity of the Ethernet, you need the following data.
Issue 01 (2011-10-26)
NOTE
IEEE 802.1ag has two versions, that is, IEEE 802.1ag Draft 7 and IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007. The cfm
default md command can be used only on the device complying with IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007. Before
using the cfm default md command, you must use the cfm version command to set the IEEE 802.1ag
version to IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007.
To check connectivity of the link between MEPs or between a MEP and a MIP in the same
MA on a network with MDs, MAs, and MEPs, use 802.1ag MAC ping.
To check connectivity of the link between two devices on a network without MDs, MAs,
and MEPs, use Gmac ping.
