To create and run a Continuity Check OAM diagnostic test from the STM
Steps
Note: The NFM-P automatically creates a Continuity Check OAM diagnostic test when you create an MD and global MEG. You can execute an automatically created test using the STM, or from the Tests tab of a MEG.
If a service is modified after you associate it with an MD, you must manually add new MEPs; for example, when a new site is added.
If a continuity check test is running on a service when you add a new MEP to the service, you must stop the test and execute it again to make the new MEP active.
When a service is modified after a continuity check is created, you must manually add a virtual MEP to the site; for example, when a new B-VPLS site is added to the service.
1 |
Choose Tools→Service Test Manager (STM) from the NFM-P main menu. The Service Test Manager form opens. |
2 |
Click Create and choose Ethernet CFM→Create Continuity Check. The CFM Continuity Check Test (Create) form opens. |
3 |
Configure the required parameters. |
4 |
Select a MEG in the Maintenance Entity Group panel. |
5 |
Configure the Duration (minutes) parameter in the Connectivity Check Timer panel. |
6 |
If you are configuring the test for a 7705 SAR, configure the required parameters in the Initial Dual Ended Loss Test Options panel. |
7 |
Save the changes and close the form. |
