Description
Creates a CFM segment.
Syntax Description
|
segment_name |
An alpha numeric string identifying the segment name. |
|
mac_addr |
Specifies the MAC address. |
|
segment_name_to_copy |
Specifies the CFM segment whose configuration is to be copied. |
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to explicitly create a CFM segment where the segment name is a 32-byte long alpha-numeric character string.
Example
The following command creates a CFM segment named segment-new using MAC address 00:11:22:11:33:11 and copying segment-old:
create cfm segment segment-new destination 00:11:22:11:33:11 copy segment-old
-
DMM transmission interval
-
Class of service
-
Threshold values
-
Measurement window size
-
Timeout value
Note
The copy option is not shown in "show config" as it is used only for copying the existing values when creating a segment.
If you later configure any of the above mentioned information in segment-new, the old value(s) which were copied from segment-old will be overwritten with the new one in segment-new, as is done for any other commands. The same will not be true on the reverse case. If you modify the values of segment-old, the modified value will NOT be propagated to the CFM segments which use segment-old's configurations. In other words, the configurations of segment-old that are at the time of creating segment-new will alone be copied and not any other changes that are made to segment-old later on.
