CFM Commands

ethernet cfm delay-measure one-way

This command sends on-demand delay-measure information to a specified MEP, stamped with the
time of transmission.

Syntax

ethernet cfm delay-measure one-way [src-mep source-mpid] {dest-mep destination-mpid |

mac-address} md domain-name ma ma-name [count transmit-count] [interval interval]
[size packet-size]

source-mpid – The identifier of a source MEP that will send delay-measure messages.
(Range: 1-8191)

destination-mpid – The identifier of a remote MEP that is the target of the delay-measure
messages. (Range: 1-8191)

mac-address – MAC address of a remote MEP that is the target of the delay-measure
messages. This address can be entered in either of the following formats: xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx
or xxxxxxxxxxxx

domain-name – Domain name. (Range: 1-43 alphanumeric characters)

ma-name – Maintenance association name. (Range: 1-43 alphanumeric characters,
maximum length is 44 minus the length of the domain name)

count The number of times to send a delay-measure message. (Range: 1-5)

interval – The interval between the transmission of delay-measure messages.
(Range: 1-5 seconds)

packet-size – The size of the delay-measure message. (Range: 64-1518 bytes)

Default Setting
Count: 5
Interval: 1 second
Packet Size: 64 bytes

Command Mode
Privileged Exec

Command Usage

Both the source and destination MEP must be configured for the same MA before using this
command.

Delay measurement can be used to measure frame delay and frame delay variation between
MEPs. In this case, each MEP sends frames with one-way delay-measure (DM) information to
its peer MEP to facilitate one-way frame delay and one-way frame delay variation
measurements.

When one-way frame delay measurements are made, the transmitting MEP sends a frame with
DM request information with the TxTimeStampf (timestamp at the time of sending a frame with
DM request information). The receiving MEP can compare this value with the RxTimef, the time
at the reception of DM frame, and calculate the one-way frame delay as:

Frame Delay = RxTimef - TxTimeStampf
