Using Connectivity Fault Management Commands

Ethernet Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) is an end-to-end, per-service-instance Ethernet layer operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) protocol. CFM includes proactive connectivity, monitoring, fault verification, and fault isolation for large Ethernet metropolitan-area networks (MANs) and WANs.

End-to-end network elements can be premises equipment (PE)-to-PE or customer equipment (CE)-to-CE. A service can be a service provider VLAN (S-VLAN) or an Ethernet virtual connection (EVC).

Cisco ANA discovers and represents device configurations for CFM 802.1ag (draft 8.1) and Cisco draft mode, including:

•Maintenance domains

•Maintenance endpoints (up-facing, down-facing)

•Maintenance intermediate points (up-facing, down-facing)

•Continuity check message status

For each CFM domain, Cisco ANA discovers and represents the following CFM domain attributes within the logical inventory:

•Domain name

•Maintenance level (a value from 0 to 7)

•Maintenance associations (802.1ag D8.1)

•VLAN IDs specified for a maintenance association

Cisco ANA discovers and represents CFM maintenance endpoints (MEPs) that are configured under:

•Switch port

•Port channel (that is, link aggregation group [LAG])

•Subinterface

•Service instance or bridge domain

Note You can navigate from the MEP logical inventory to the interface or port channel on which the MEP is configured.

CFM uses standard Ethernet frames. CFM frames are distinguishable by EtherType and for multicast messages, by MAC address. CFM frames are sourced, terminated, processed, and relayed by bridges. Routers support only limited CFM functions.

Bridges that cannot interpret CFM messages forward them as normal data frames. All CFM messages are confined to a maintenance domain and to an S-VLAN (PE-VLAN or Provider-VLAN). CFM supports three types of messages:

•Continuity check—Multicast heartbeat messages exchanged periodically among MEPs. They allow MEPs to discover other MEPs within a domain and allow maintenance intermediate points (MIPs) to discover MEPs. Continuity check messages (CCMs) are confined to a domain and S-VLAN.

•Loopback—Unicast frames that a MEP transmits, at the request of an administrator, to verify connectivity to a particular maintenance point. A reply to a loopback message indicates whether a destination is reachable but does not allow hop-by-hop discovery of the path. A loopback message is similar in concept to an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo (ping) message.

•Traceroute—Multicast frames that a MEP transmits, at the request of an administrator, to track the path (hop-by-hop) to a destination MEP. They allow the transmitting node to discover vital connectivity data about the path, and allow the discovery of all MIPs along the path that belong to the same maintenance domain. For each visible MIP, traceroute messages indicate ingress action, relay action, and egress action. Traceroute messages are similar in concept to User Datagram Protocol (UDP) traceroute messages.

From the Logical Inventory tree, you can launch the following troubleshooting commands for a MEP:

•CFM ping

•CFM traceroute

•CFM MEP status

•CFM MEP cross-check status

Cisco ANA associates alarms with the corresponding MEP or global CFM logical inventory objects.

Cisco ANA correlates MEP down, MEP up, MEP missing, ETH-AIS, and ETH-RDI events with root cause alarms and corresponding tickets that exist along the path between the MEP on the reporting network element and the network element hosting the remote MEP.

The following commands facilitate the configuration of CFM components:

•Configure CFM Maintenance Domain

•Configure CFM Global Parameters

•Configure CFM MIP

•Configure CFM Continuity Check

•Configure CFM Service ID

•Configure CFM MEP

•Enable CFM Continuity Check

•Enable CFM SNMP Server Traps

Note In the GUI, parameters that are displayed in bold text are mandatory.

Configure CFM Maintenance Domain

Use the Configure CFM Maintenance Domain command to configure the CFM domain on a device.

A maintenance domain is a management space for the purpose of managing and administering a network. A single entity owns and operates a domain and is defined by the set of ports internal to it and at its boundary.

Each maintenance domain can contain any number of maintenance associations. Each maintenance association identifies a service that can be uniquely identified within the maintenance domain. The CFM protocol runs within a particular maintenance association.

Step 1 In the inventory window, expand the Logical Inventory tree.

Step 2 Right-click the CFM node and choose Commands > Configure > Cisco > Maintenance Domain. The Maintenance Domain dialog box opens.

Step 3 By default, the General tab is selected. Enter values for the following parameters.

Input Parameter

Description

Domain Name

Name of the domain.

Maintenance Level

Maintenance level number. The range is from 0 to 7.

A network administrator assigns a unique maintenance level to each domain. Levels and domain names are useful for defining the hierarchical relationship that exists among domains. The hierarchical relationship of domains parallel the structure of customer, service provider, and operator. The larger the domain, the higher the level value. For example, a customer domain would be larger than an operator domain. The customer domain may have a maintenance level of 7 and the operator domain may have a maintenance level of 0. Typically, operators have the smallest domains and customers the largest domains, with service provider domains between them in size. All levels of the hierarchy must operate together.

MEP Archive Hold Time

Maintenance endpoint archived hold time. The range is from 1 to 65535 minutes.

A maintenance point is a demarcation point on an interface (port) that participates in CFM within a maintenance domain. Maintenance points on device ports act as filters that confine CFM frames within the bounds of a domain by dropping frames that do not belong to the correct level. Maintenance points must be explicitly configured on Cisco devices. Two classes of maintenance points exist: MEPs and maintenance intermediate points (MIPs).

Step 4 To see the commands that will be applied on the device, click Preview.

You can view the commands in the Result tab. You can go back and make any required changes to the input parameters.

Step 5 To run the commands, click Execute.

You can view errors in the Result tab, if there are any.

Step 6 To close the dialog box, click Close.

Step 2 Right-click the CFM node and choose Commands > Configure > Cisco > Global Parameters. The Global Parameters dialog box opens.

Step 3 By default, the General tab is selected. Enter values for the following parameters.

Input Parameter

Description

Trace Route Cache Size

Number of cached lines. The range is from 1 to 4095.

Using CFM, you can configure the device to transmit traceroute and loopback messages. This parameter sets the CFM traceroute cache size used by the CFM service.

Trace Route Cache Hold Time

Hold time. The range is from 1 to 65535 minutes.

A CFM service is configurable with a hold-time value to indicate to the receiver the validity of the message. The default is 2.5 times the transmit interval.

Configure CFM MIP

Use the Configure CFM MIP command to configure an operator-level maintenance intermediate point (MIP) for the domain-level ID. MIPs have the following characteristics:

•Per-maintenance domain (level) for all S-VLANs enabled or allowed on a port.

•Internal to a domain, not at the boundary.

•CFM frames received from MEPs and other MIPs are cataloged and forwarded, using both the wire and the relay function.

•All CFM frames at a lower level are stopped and dropped, independent of whether they originate from the wire or from relay function.

•All CFM frames at a higher level are forwarded, independent of whether they arrive from the wire or from relay function.

•Passive points respond only when triggered by CFM traceroute and loopback messages.

•Bridge-brain MAC addresses are used.

If the port on which a MIP is configured is blocked by Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP), the MIP cannot receive CFM messages or relay them toward the relay function side. The MIP can, however, receive and respond to CFM messages from the wire.

A MIP has only one level associated with it, and the command-line interface (CLI) does not allow you to configure a MIP for a domain that does not exist.

Step 1 In the inventory window, expand the Logical Inventory tree.

Step 2 Right-click the CFM node and choose Commands > Configure > Cisco > MIP. The MIP dialog box opens.
