Fault analysis

After the PVC of Router A is faulty or deleted, the PVC that connects Router B does not sense

the status change of the remote PVC immediately, and the PVC of Router B still works
normally but lose the packets.

The OAM F5 Loopback function is a re-transmission detection mechanism, through which the

local PVC can sense the status change of the remote PVC immediately.

Configuring the OAM F5 Loopback function in the PVC of ATM can solve this problem.

Troubleshooting procedure

Do as follows on the routers:

Step 1

Enter the system view by running the

system-view

command.

Step 2

Enter the ATM interface view by running the

interface atm 1/0/0

command.

Step 3

Enter the PVC-Group view by running the

pvc-group 255/2047

command.

Step 4

Enter the PVC view by running the

pvc100/101

command.

Step 5

Configure the interface for sending the OAM F5 Loopback cell as one second by running the

oam frequency 1

command.
