All MEPs that exist on other devices inside a maintenance association

should be statically configured to ensure full connectivity through the

cross-check process.

Remote MEPs can only be configured if local domain service access

points (DSAPs) have already been created (see

"Configuring

Maintenance End Points"

) at the same maintenance level and in the

same MA. DSAPs are MEPs that exist on the edge of the domain, and

act as primary service access points for end-to-end cross-check, loop-

back, and link-trace functions.

The MEP cross-check start delay which sets the maximum delay that a

device waits for remote MEPs to come up before starting the cross-

check operation can be configured on the Configure Global page (see

"Configuring Global Settings for CFM"

).

SNMP traps for continuity check events discovered by cross-check

operations can also be configured on the Configure Global page (see

"Configuring Global Settings for CFM"

).
