CFM Commands
Example
This example enables CFM globally on the switch.
Console(config)#ethernet cfm enable
Console(config)#
ma index name
This command creates a maintenance association (MA) within the current maintenance domain,
maps it to a customer service instance (S-VLAN), and sets the manner in which MIPs are created
for this service instance. Use the no form with the vlan keyword to remove the S-VLAN from the
specified MA. Or use the no form with only the index keyword to remove the MA from the current
domain.
Syntax
ma index index name ma-name [vlan vlan-id [mip-creation type]]
no ma index index [vlan vlan-id]
index – MA identifier. (Range: 1-2147483647)
ma-name – MA name. (Range: 1-43 alphanumeric characters, maximum length is 44
minus the length of the domain name)
vlan-id - Service VLAN ID. (Range: 1-4093)
type – Specifies the CFM protocol’s creation method for maintenance intermediate points
(MIPs) in this MA:
default – MIPs can be created for this MA on any bridge port through which the MA’s
VID can pass.
explicit – MIPs can be created this MA only on bridge ports through which the MA’s VID
can pass, and only if a maintenance end point (MEP) is created at some lower MA
Level.
none – No MIP can be created for this MA.
Default Setting
10 seconds
Command Mode
CFM Domain Configuration
Command Usage
•
The maintenance domain used to enter CFM domain configuration mode, the MA name and
VLAN identifier specified by this command, and the DSAPs configured with the
command create a unique service instance for each customer.
•
If only the MA index and name are entered for this command, the MA will be recorded in the
domain database, but will not function. No MEPs can be created until the MA is associated
with a service VLAN.
•
Note that multiple domains at the same maintenance level (see the
command) cannot have an MA on the same VLAN. Also, each MA name must be unique within
the CFM-managed network.
