5.4 Configuring the Two-way Frame Delay Measurement in
a VLAN
You can configure the two-way frame delay measurement in the VLAN bound to an MA and
estimate the quality of services based on the calculated two-way frame delay.

5.4.1 Establishing the Configuration Task

Before configuring the two-way frame delay measurement, familiarize yourself with the
applicable environment, complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data. This
can help you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.
Applicable Environment
You can configure the two-way frame delay measurement to collect statistics about the delay in
bidirectional service traffic transmission.
The two-way frame delay measurement is commonly performed on end-to-end MEPs. After a
remote MEP receives a DMM frame from a local MEP, the remote MEP adds the RxTimeStampf
value (timestamp at the time of receiving the DMM frame) to the DMM frame, generates a DMR
frame with the TxTimeStampb value, and sends the message to the local MEP. Every field in
the DMM frame is copied to the DMR frame except that the source and destination MAC
addresses are swapped and the message type is changed from DMM to DMR. Upon receiving
the DMR frame, the local MEP calculates the two-way frame delay based on the timestamps.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring the two-way delay measurement in the VLAN, complete the following tasks:

NOTE
Before enabling the two-way delay measurement in the VLAN on the local device, you must configure the
DMM frame reception function on the remote device.
