SERVICE MA NAME
Mode Ethernet CFM Configuration
Usage notes A Maintenance Association is a Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) term that
represents a particular segment of a network within a Maintenance Domain. An
MA can represent a segment of a VLAN that is managed for connectivity within
that segment. As a VLAN is often the granularity that a Network Service Provider
sells to their customer, an MA is often referred to as a "Service". An MA can also be
used to represent a link and in this case the MA is VLAN unaware.
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 MA name within the MAID field. Within an MD instance context, this command
is used to configure the MA name, which can be chosen from a variety of format
types.
Example To create a Maintenance Association instance named "MA-INST2-1" with an MA
name type of "string" and value of "MA-12V100", use the command:
awplus(config-ether-cfm)#
string ma-type-name MA-12V100
To destroy a Maintenance Association instance named "MA-INST2-1", use the
command:
awplus(config-ether-cfm)#
