mep mep-id

Function

The mep mep-id command creates a MEP.

The undo mep mep-id command deletes a MEP.

Format

mep mep-id mep-id interface interface-type interface-number [ pe-vid pe-vid ce-vid ce-vid ] { inward | outward }

undo mep mep-id mep-id

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
mep-id mep-id Specifies the ID of a MEP. The ID identifies a MEP. The MEP ID must be unique in an MA and in a VLAN. The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 8191.
interface-type interface-number Specifies the type and number of the interface where a MEP is configured.
  • interface-type specifies the interface type.

  • interface-number specifies the interface number.

-
pe-vid pe-vid Specifies the outer VLAN ID of a PE. The value is a decimal integer that ranges from 1 to 4094.
ce-vid ce-vid Specifies the inner VLAN ID of a CE. The value is a decimal integer that ranges from 1 to 4094.
inward Indicates an inward-facing MEP. An inward-facing MEP sends 802.1ag packets through all interfaces in a VLAN associated with an MA, except the interface on which the MEP is configured. That is, the inward-facing MEP broadcasts 802.1ag packets in the VLAN associated with the MA. -
outward Indicates an outward-facing MEP. An outward-facing MEP sends 802.1ag packets through an interface on which the MEP is configured. -

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To create a MEP, run the mep mep-id command.

Precautions

Inward- and outward-facing MEPs are classified based on the scope where 802.1ag packets are sent.

The MEP level of the associated VLAN must be greater than the MEP level of the non-associated VLAN based on the same physical interface or Eth-Trunk member interface. The MEP level is determined by the MD level. You can run the cfm md md-name command to configure the MD level.

The requirements for the number and type of MEPs created in an MA are as follows:

  • The inward- and outward-facing MEPs cannot coexist.

  • You can create multiple inward-facing interface-based MEPs but only one outward-facing interface-based MEP. Only one inward-facing interface-based MEP can be created on an interface.

Example

# Create an inward-facing MEP on GigabitEthernet0/0/1 in MA ma1 of MD md1 and set the MEP ID to 15.
