ethernet oam
Usage Guidelines When Ethernet OAM is configured on an interface, the default mode of the OAM client is active. When
the Ethernet OAM mode is enabled on two interfaces passing traffic, both interfaces cannot be in passive
mode. Both interfaces can be in active mode, and one can be in active mode and the other in passive
mode. You can toggle between Ethernet OAM modes without disabling OAM.
The min-rate num-seconds keyword and argument pair controls the minimum rate at which OAM PDUs
can be sent on an interface, in seconds. A value of n, where 1 is less than or equal to n and n is less than
or equal to 10, indicates that an OAM PDU must be sent at least once per n seconds. If no other OAM
PDU is to be sent within an n-second window, an information OAM PDU must be sent.
Examples The following example shows how to activate an Ethernet OAM interface that was previously configured
to be in passive mode:
Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Router(config-if)# ethernet oam mode active
The following example shows how to set the maximum transmission rate of OAM PDUs on interface
GigabitEthernet 0/1 to 5 transmissions per second:
Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Router(config-if)# ethernet oam max-rate 5
The following example shows how to set the timeout period to 25 seconds on interface GigabitEthernet
0/1:
Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Router(config-if)# ethernet oam timeout 25
