Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You need to switch IEEE 802.1ag between the two versions when the device supports both IEEE 802.1ag Draft 7 and IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007.

Precautions

To ensure that CFM works properly, all devices on the entire network must run IEEE 802.1ag of the same version. During switching between IEEE 802.1ag Draft 7 and IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007, all 802.1ag functions are unavailable. You can run the cfm enable (system view) command to enable CFM globally only after all devices use the same IEEE 802.1ag version.

Example

# Switch IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007 to IEEE 802.1ag Draft 7.
