802.3ah Ethernet OAM Settings
802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) Operations Administration and Maintenance (OAM) is a group
of network management functions that provide network fault indication, per formance information, and
diagnosis using special-purpose Ethernet OAM frames. These are exchanged between your Gateway
and ser vice provider Access Node (AN) devices for network fault management, per formance analysis
and fault isolation.
All VDSL and Ethernet WAN Motorola Netopia

Gateways suppor t Ethernet OAM options.

Gateways will suppor t
802.3ah Ethernet OAM options in future releases.
802.3ah Ethernet OAM exchanges periodic Ethernet OAM hear tbeat frames between the endpoints of
the physical link being monitored, and thus discovers and keeps-alive the Link connectivity and repor ts
faults if the link goes down. Suppor ted OAM request and response types are: remote loopback enable,
remote loopback disable, variable request, variable response.
set ethernet oam ah option [ off | on ]
Enables or disables Ethernet OAM. Default is off.
set ethernet oam ah pass-through [ off | on ]
Enable or disable Ethernet OAM pass-through mode. Default is off.
Warning: This is a DEBUG feature. Leave it off unless you know exactly what you are doing.

set ethernet oam ah discovery-timer [ 1 - 300 ]
Specifies the discover y timer value for continuity check in seconds. Range is 1 – 300 seconds. Default
is
1.
set ethernet oam ah keepalive-timer [ 5 - 305 ]
Specifies the keep-alive timer value in seconds. Range is 5 – 305 seconds. Default is 5.
etheroam ah ping
