efm error-code period

Function

The efm error-code period command sets the period for detecting EFM errored codes on an interface.

The undo efm error-code period command restores the default period for detecting EFM errored codes on an interface.

By default, the period for detecting EFM errored codes on an interface is 1s.

Format

efm error-code period period

undo efm error-code period

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
period	Specifies the period for detecting EFM errored codes.	The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 60, in seconds. The default value is 1s.

Ethernet interface view, GE interface view, XGE interface view, 25GE interface view, 40GE interface view, 100GE interface view, MultiGE interface view, port group view

Default Level

2: Configuration level

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After the efm error-code period period command is run to set the period for detecting EFM errored codes, run the efm error-code notification enable command to enable an interface to detect EFM errored codes. When the number of detected errored codes during the period reaches or exceeds a preset threshold, the local device generates an alarm and notifies the peer device of the alarm event.

Prerequisites

EFM has been enabled globally using the efm enable command.

Example

# Set the period for detecting EFM errored codes on Layer 2 interface GigabitEthernet0/0/1 to 20s.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] efm enable
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] efm error-code period 20
Info: Operation succeeded.

# Set the period for detecting EFM errored codes on Layer 3 interface GigabitEthernet0/0/1 to 20s.

<HUAWEI> system-view
