Configuring a Remote MEP with an Iterator Profile

You can associate a remote maintenance association end point (MEP) with more than one iterator profile.

To configure a remote MEP with an iterator profile:

  1. In configuration mode, go to the following hierarchy level:
    user@host# edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id
  2. Configure the remote MEP with values from 1 through 8191.
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id]user@host# set remote-mep remote-mep-id
  3. Set the iterator profile.
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id remote-mep remote-mep-id]user@host# set sla-iterator-profile profile-name
  4. (Optional) Set the size of the data TLV portion of the Y.1731 data frame with values from 1 through 1400 bytes. The default value is 1.
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id remote-mep remote-mep-id sla-iterator-profile profile-name]user@host# set data-tlv-size size
  5. (Optional) Set the iteration count, which indicates the number of iterations for which this connection should partake in the iterator for acquiring SLA measurements, with values from 1 through 65,535. The default value is 0 (that is, infinite iterations).
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id remote-mep remote-mep-id sla-iterator-profile profile-name]user@host# set iteration-count count-value
  6. (Optional) Set the priority, which is the vlan-pcp value that is sent in the Y.1731 data frames, with values from 0 through 7. The default value is 0.
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id remote-mep remote-mep-id sla-iterator-profile profile-name]user@host# set priority priority-value
  7. Verify the configuration.
    [edit protocols oam ethernet connectivity-fault-management maintenance-domain md-name maintenance-association ma-name mep mep-id remote-mep remote-mep-id]user@host# showsla-iterator-profile profile-name {data-tlv-size size;iteration-count count-value;priority priority-value;}
