Enables Ethernet OAM on ports.
| port_list | Specifies the particular ports. |
| all | Specifies all fiber ports. |
Ethernet OAM is disabled on all ports.
Use this command to enable Ethernet OAM on one or more specified ports or on all fiber ports. Unidirectional link fault management is supported only on fiber ports.
Before enabling Ethernet OAM, autonegotiation must be turned off. The link should be a full duplex link.
If some ports cannot be enabled because, for instance, autonegotiation is not turned off, the command is executed for those ports that can be enabled and reasons for the failed ports are displayed.
To display the Ethernet OAM configuration, use the show ethernet oam command.
The following command enables Ethernet OAM on all fiber ports:
# enable ethernet oam ports all link-fault-management
