Maintenance Entity Groups

Figure 11-16. Create a New Maintenance Entity Group screen
To configure the operation of the MEPs in compatible mode, use the following steps:
1. For the 802.1ag MEP, configure the corresponding MD Domain Name as empty. Only the
MA name will be transmitted in the CCM packet.
2. For the Y.1731 MEP, configure the corresponding MEG name in Character string mode.
The MEG name configured for the Y.1731 MEP must match the name defined for the MA
of the 802.1ag MEP.
NOTE: Some limitations apply to interoperability between Y.1731 and
802.1ag MEPs. An LTR from a Y.1731 MEP working in inter-op mode
is not recognized by an 802.1ag MEP because they use different
rules to construct and validate the message. An LTR can be initi-
ated from the Y.1731 MEP only. An LBM can be sent from either
MEP.
