Configuring a Port MEP
A port MEP is a down MEP that is not associated with a VLAN and that uses untagged frames to carry
CFM messages. You configure port MEPs on two connected interfaces. Port MEPs are always configured
at a lower domain level than native VLAN MEPs.
To configure Ethernet CFM port MEPs, perform this task:
Command Purpose
Step 1 Switch# configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 Switch(config)# ethernet cfm domain
domain-name level level-id Defines a CFM domain, set the domain level, and enter
ethernet-cfm configuration mode for the domain. The
maintenance level number range is 0 to 7.
Step 3 Switch(config-ecfm)# service {ma-name |
ma-number | vpn-id} port Defines a customer service maintenance association name
or number or VPN ID to be associated with the domain,
define a port MEP, and enter ethernet-cfm-service
configuration mode.
• ma-name—a string of no more than 100 characters that
identifies the MAID.
• ma-number—a value from 0 to 65535.
• vpn-id vpn—enter a VPN ID as the ma-name.
Step 4 Switch(config-ecfm-srv)# mep mpid identifier Defines the static remote maintenance end point identifier
in the domain and service. The range is 1 to 8191.
Step 5 Switch(config-ecfm-srv)# continuity-check Enables sending and receiving of continuity check
messages.
