client-interface (Y1731)

Associates either a physical interface or a port-channel interface to a Y1731 Maintenance Entity Group End Point (MEP) as a client interface.

Syntax

client-interface { ethernet slot/port [:subport ] | port-channel number } csf-type { loss-of-signal } tx-period [1-minute | 1-second ]

no client-interface { ethernet slot/port [:subport ] | port-channel number }

Command Default

This command has no defaults.

Parameters

ethernet slot/port: Specifies an Ethernet slot and port with optional subport.

port-channel number: Specifies a port-channel.

csf-type loss-of-signal: Specifies the Client Signal Failure (CSF) type as C-LOS (the currently supported option).

tx-period

Specifies a transmission period. The following options are currently supported.

1-minute: Specifies 1 minute.

1-second: Specifies 1 second.

Modes

MEP configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

This command associates an Ethernet Client Signal Fail (ETH-CSF) client interface to an MEP and configures a transmission-period for the ETH-CSF frames to be transmitted towards the peer Remote MEP (RMEP).

Use the no form of this command to remove the association of the client interface with the MEP.

Examples

This example specifies a client interface on Ethernet interface 1/2 with CSF type C-LOS and transmission period of 1 minute for Down MEP 1 in MD md1 and MA ma1.

device# configure terminal
Entering configuration mode terminal
device(config)# protocol cfm 
device(config-cfm)# domain-name md1 id 1 level 3
device(config-cfm-md-md1)# ma-name ma1 id 1 vlan 10 priority 7
device(config-cfm-md-ma-ma1)# mep 1 down ethernet 1/1 
device(config-cfm-md-ma-mep-1)# client-interface ethernet 1/2 csf-type loss-of-signal tx-period 1-minute

This example removes the association of the client interface with the MEP.
