Use this command to set the administrative state of the MEP (maintenance end point) state machines.
None.
The MEP stat machines administrative state default to inactive.
Maintenance End-Point Configuration mode
Setting the MEP state machines to active activates the various state machines within the MEP as defined in IEEE 802.1Q-2011. The MEP state machines must be set to active for the MEP to be operational.
If the MEP state machines are set to inactive, PDUs are not processed, timers are not activated, and defects are not detected.
If the MEP state machine status is active and the MEP is not enabled using enable, the MEP will have a Row Status of "Active" in show cfm md ma mep remote-mep, but will not perform any functions such as send and receive PDUs or generate defects.
The “no” form of this command sets the MEP administrative state machine state to the default value of inactive.
This example sets the administrative state for the myMA1 MEP 1000 to active:
System(rw-config)->cfm md string-name myMD1 System(su-config-cfm-md.1)->ma string-name myMA1 System(su-config-cfm-ma.1)->mep 1000 System(su-config-cfm-mep.1000)->active System(su-config-cfm-mep.1000)->
