ETHERNET CFM DOMAIN
NAME
Mode
Global Configuration
Usage
A Maintenance Domain is a Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) term that
represents the administrative area of a network from which an operator can
manage VLANs that traverse their area. An MD can also be scoped to a simple
Ethernet link. To differentiate different administrative areas, an MD is made up of a
name and a level. As part of CFM, a Connectivity Check Message (CCM) is used to
detect Ethernet connectivity faults amongst nodes that participate in CFM. CCM
messages carry the MD name within the MAID field as well as carries the level of
the MD.
This command is used to configure the MD name, which can be chosen from a
variety of name format types, as well as the level.
Example
To create a Maintenance Domain instance named "MD-INST2" with a character
string-based name of "MD-12L3" and a level of 3, use the command:
awplus(config)#
character-string md-type-name MD-12L3 level 3
To enter Ethernet CFM Configuration mode for an existing MD instance named
"MD-INST2", use the command:
awplus(config)#
awplus(config-ether-cfm)#
To destroy a Maintenance Domain instance named "MD-INST2", use the
command:
awplus(config)#
