Setting Maintenance Domain parameters

6

Brocade(config-cfm)#domain name VPLS-SP level 4

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP)#ma-name ma_1 vlan-id 30 priority 3

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP-ma-ma_1)#ccm-interval 10-second

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP-ma-ma_1)#

Syntax: [no] ccm-interval [1-second | 1-minute | 10-second | 10-minute|3.3-ms | 10-ms |

100-ms ]

The 1 second parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 1 second.

The1 minute parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 1 minute.

The 10 second parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 10
seconds.

The 10 minute parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 10
minutes.

The 3.3 milliseconds parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 3.3
milliseconds.

The 10 milliseconds parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to 10
milliseconds.

The 100 milliseconds parameter sets the time interval between two successive CCM packets to
100 milliseconds.

Configuring local ports

The mep command, in Maintenance Association mode, adds local ports as MEP to a specific
maintenance association. If configuring a CFM packet to a “down” MEP, it will need to be sent out
on the port on which it was configured. If configuring a CFM packet to an “up” MEP, it will need to
be sent to the entire VLAN for multicast traffic, and unicast traffic will need to be sent to a
particular port according to the MAC table.

Configuring a MED for each of the Domain Service Access Points of a service instance creates a MA
to monitor the connectivity:

The list of MEPs configured with identical values for MA ID defines an MA.

Each Bridge has its own Maintenance Association managed object for an MA.

Each individual MEP is configured with a ID that is unique within that MA.

Each MEP is associated with a Service Access Point that provides access to a single service
instance.

NOTE

When configuring 802.1ag over VPLS, if the VPLS endpoint is deleted from the configuration,
the MEP configuration is deleted under CFM without warning.

To add local ports to an upstream MEP, enter commands such as the following.

Brocade(config-cfm)# domain name VPLS-SP level 4

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP)# ma-name ma_1 vlan-id 30 priority 3

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP-ma_1)# mep 1 up port eth 2/1

Brocade(config-cfm-md-VPLS-SP-ma_1)#

Syntax: [no] mep mep-id [ up l down ] [ vlan vlan-id port ethernet slot/port | port ethernet

slot/port ]
