Use the Administration > CFM (Configure MD) pages to create and
configure a Maintenance Domain (MD) which defines a portion of the
network for which connectivity faults can be managed. Domain access
points are set up on the boundary of a domain to provide end-to-end
connectivity fault detection, analysis, and recovery. Domains can be
configured in a hierarchy to provide management access to the same basic
network resources for different user levels.
