Configuring Ethernet CFM
Configuring an IP SLAs Operation with Endpoint Discovery
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to use IP SLAs to automatically discover the
CFM endpoints for a domain and VLAN ID. You can configure ping or jitter operations to the discovered
endpoints.
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 ip sla ethernet-monitor operation-number Begin configuration of an IP SLAs automatic Ethernet
operation, and enter IP SLAs Ethernet monitor
configuration mode.
Step 3 type echo domain domain-name vlan vlan-id
[exclude-mpids mp-ids]
or
type jitter domain domain-name vlan vlan-id
[exclude-mpids mp-ids] [interval
interpacket-interval] [num-frames number-of frames
transmitted]
Configure the automatic Ethernet operation to create echo
(ping) or jitter operation and enter IP SLAs Ethernet echo
configuration mode.
Enter type echo for a ping operation or type jitter for
a jitter operation.
For mpid identifier, enter a maintenance endpoint
identifier. The range is 1 to 8191.
For domain domain-name, enter the CFM domain
name.
For vlan vlan-id, the VLAN range is from 1 to 4095.
(Optional) Enter exclude-mpids mp-ids to exclude the
specified maintenance endpoint identifiers.
(Optional—for jitter only) Enter the interval between
sending of jitter packets.
(Optional—for jitter only) Enter the num-frames and
the number of frames to be sent.
Step 4 cos cos-value (Optional) Set a class of service value for the operation.
Step 5 owner owner-id (Optional) Configure the SNMP owner of the IP SLAs
operation.
Step 6 request-data-size bytes (Optional) Specify the protocol data size for an IP SLAs
request packet. The range is from 0 to the maximum size
allowed by the protocol being used; the default is 66 bytes.
Step 7 tag text (Optional) Create a user-specified identifier for an IP SLAs
operation.
Step 8 threshold milliseconds (Optional) Specify the upper threshold value in
milliseconds for calculating network monitoring statistics.
The range is 0 to 2147483647; the default is 5000.
Step 9 timeout milliseconds (Optional) Specify the amount of time in milliseconds that
the IP SLAs operation waits for a response from its request
packet. The range is 0 to 604800000; the default value is
5000.
Step 10 exit Return to global configuration mode.
