Converteon™ to be used in a network where the Converteon™
chassis is not part of the IEEE802.3ah end points. In this mode, the
OAM function of the line card is disabled. To configure as OAM bypass
mode, the module will pass all OAMPDUs whose vendor OUI is not
Allied Telesis.
OAM Visible Mode – In this mode, the line card does respond to
OAMPDU packets. In an unmanaged chassis, the line card will be in
passive mode. In a managed chassis, the line card can either be in
passive or active mode depending on how it is software configured.
For detailed information, refer to Table 3, “OAM Active and Passive
Mode Behaviors” on page 113. To configure as OAM visible mode, the
module will respond to all OAMPDUs.(default)
Operation Status
Indicates the OAM operational status. Possible values are:
Disabled – The OAM operation has been disabled.
Passive Wait – A station configured in Passive mode waits until
receiving information OAMPDUS with Local Information TLVs before
sending any Information OAMPDU with Local Information TLVs. By
waiting until first receiving an Information OAMPDU with the Local
Information.
Active Send Local – A station configured in Active mode sends
Information OAMPDUs that only contain the Local Information TLV.
While in this state, the local station waits for Information OAMPDUs
received from the remote station.
Send Local and Remote – The flow of frames is generated within the
local and remote stations and across the link during loopback.
OAM Peering Locally Rejected – The configuration of the peer OAM
entity has been rejected by the remote station.
OAM Peering Remotely Rejected – The configuration of the peer OAM
entity has been rejected by the local station.
Operational – The OAM operation is in operational mode. (default)
Mux State
Governs the flow of frames from the MAC Client through the
multiplexer function. Possible values are:
Forward – Multiplexer passes MAC Client frames to subordinate
sublayer. (default)
Discard – Multiplexer discards MAC Client frames.
Parser State
Indicates the state of the parser function in the OAM peer as reflected
