Creating MPs and the CCM Transmission Interval

Within an MA, you configure the following MPs:
  • Maintenance end points (MEPs), which are one of the following types:
    • UP MEPs—transmit CCMs, and maintain CCM database.
    • DOWN MEPs—transmit CCMs, and maintain CCM database.
  • Maintenance intermediate points (MIPs)—pass CCMs through.

Each MEP must have an ID that is unique for that MEP throughout the MA.
