Ethernet CFM showing link flaps etc

sj.constantine
Level 1
Level 1

Hi guys

Can somoene give a basic run-through on what triggers alerts on switches running CFM on a VLAN running between two end-points (ie. NY and LA)?

ethernet cfm ieee

ethernet cfm global

ethernet cfm traceroute cache

ethernet cfm alarm notification all

ethernet cfm alarm reset 2500

ethernet cfm domain CUSTOMER level 3

mip auto-create

service NYCLAXLINK vlan 250

  mep mpid 1

  continuity-check

  continuity-check interval 100ms

  continuity-check loss-threshold 10

  continuity-check static rmep

CFM is applied to the access port for the VLANs at both ends.

When the link drops, we see an alert in the logs:

%ETHER_SERVICE-6-EVC_STATUS_CHANGED: status of NYKLAXLINK changed to InActive

%ETHER_SERVICE-6-EVC_STATUS_CHANGED: status of NYKLAXLINK changed to Active

When the 'InActive' alert is triggered, does this mean it has missed 10 CCM packets (refer to the above config)? Is there a way to see more stats of what is going on and why the alert has been triggered?

Thanks
