Displaying And Maintaining Ethernet Oam Configuration; Ethernet Oam Configuration Example - 3Com 4510G Configuration Manual

Ethernet OAM remote loopback is available only after the Ethernet OAM connection is established
and can be performed only by the Ethernet OAM entities operating in active Ethernet OAM mode.
Remote loopback is available only on full-duplex links that support remote loopback at both ends.
Ethernet OAM remote loopback needs the support of the peer hardware.
Enabling Ethernet OAM remote loopback interrupts data communications. After Ethernet OAM
remote loopback is disabled, all the ports involved will shut down and then come up. Ethernet
OAM remote loopback is disabled when you execute the undo oam enable command to disable
Ethernet OAM, when you execute the undo oam loopback command to disable Ethernet OAM
remote loopback, or when the Ethernet OAM connection times out.
Ethernet OAM remote loopback is only applicable to individual links. It is not applicable to link
aggregation member ports. In addition, you cannot assign ports where Ethernet OAM remote
loopback is being performed to link aggregation groups. For more information about link
aggregation groups, refer to Link Aggregation Configuration in the Access Volume.
Enabling internal loopback test on a port in remote loopback test can terminate the remote
loopback test. For more information about loopback test, refer to Ethernet Interface Configuration
in the Access Volume.

Ethernet OAM Configuration Example

Network requirements
Enable Ethernet OAM on Device A and Device B to auto-detect link errors between the two
devices.
Monitor the performance of the link between Device A and Device B by collecting statistics about
the error frames received by Device A..
