Release Information
Configures the discovery mode to be used for IEEE 802.3ah OAM link-fault
Description
management support on an interface as active or passive. Also, configures the number
of OAM packet data units (PDUs) from the remote peer that an interface on the local
client can miss before the link between the two entities is considered down. The
default mode of the interface on the OAM client is active. The no version disables
discovery, deactivating link-fault management functionality on the interface.

mode Configures the OAM client mode for the discovery process
active Sets the discovery mode of the local OAM client as active. In active mode,
the interface discovers and monitors the peer on the link if the peer also supports
IEEE 802.3ah OAM functionality. This is the default discovery mode of the OAM
client
passive Sets the discovery mode of the local OAM client as passive. In passive
mode, an OAM entity does not initiate the discovery process. You cannot perform
link-fault management if you configure both the local client and the remote peer
for passive mode operation
pduLostPackets The window for which the local client waits to receive OAM
packets from the remote peer before it generates a link fault event. Number of
expected OAM packets from the remote peer that the local OAM client can miss
before a link-fault event is triggered; a number in the range 3–10; default value
is 5
