To configure the Sender-ID TLV of a CFM PDU for an NE

Before you begin

On supporting NEs, you can specify a user-defined ID in the Sender ID TLV of CFM PDUs. To use this option, the ID-Permission parameter on the MEG Service form for the NE MEG must be set to “chassis”; see To configure an Ethernet CFM MD policy and subordinate objects.

On the equipment tree, right-click on a device and select Properties. The Network Element (Edit) form opens with the General tab displayed.

Click on the Globals tab and on the OAM tab.

Configure the parameters in the Sender ID panel.

When the Sender ID Type parameter is set to Local, you can configure the Sender ID Name parameter with a user-defined ID to be used in the Sender ID TLV of CFM PDUs.

Save your changes and close the form.
