Ethernet Oam Configuration Example; Network Requirements; Configuration Procedure - HP 5900 Series Configuration Manual

Purpose
Display the statistics on Ethernet OAM link error
events after an Ethernet OAM connection is
established.
Clear statistics on Ethernet OAM packets and Ethernet
OAM link error events.

Ethernet OAM configuration example

Network requirements

On the network shown in
• Enable Ethernet OAM on Device A and Device B to auto-detect link errors between the two devices
Determine the performance of the link between Device A and Device B by collecting statistics about
•
the error frames received by Device A
Figure 1 Network diagram

Configuration procedure

1. Configure Device A:
# Configure Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to operate in active Ethernet OAM mode, and enable
Ethernet OAM for it.
<DeviceA> system-view
[DeviceA] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[DeviceA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam mode active
[DeviceA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam enable
# Set the errored frame event detection window to 20000 milliseconds, and set the errored frame
event triggering threshold to 10.
[DeviceA] oam errored-frame period 200
[DeviceA] oam errored-frame threshold 10
[DeviceA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
2. Configure Device B:
# Configure Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to operate in passive Ethernet OAM mode (the default),
and enable Ethernet OAM for it.
<DeviceB> system-view
[DeviceB] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[DeviceB-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam mode passive
[DeviceB-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] oam enable
[DeviceB-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
3. Verify the configuration:
