mip create-type (MD view)

Function

The mip create-type command configures a MIP creation rule in an MD or the default MD.

The undo mip create-type command restores the default MIP creation rule in an MD or the default MD.

By default, the MIP creation rule in an MD or the default MD is none. That is, MIPs are not created.

Format

mip create-type { default | explicit | none }

undo mip create-type

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
default	Indicates that a MIP can be created on the interface without a higher-level MEP and a lower-level MIP. In this mode, MIPs can be created when no MEP is configured on the interface.	-
explicit	Indicates that a MIP can be created on an interface with a lower-level MEP but without a higher-level MEP or a lower-level MIP. In this mode, a MIP can be created on an interface only when a lower-level MEP has been configured on this interface.	-
none	Indicates that the MIP creation rule on an interface is none, that is, a MIP is not created automatically.	-

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

When all devices in an MD are enabled to send CCMs, MEPs send CCMs periodically. If a MEP receives no CCMs from an RMEP within three consecutive intervals for sending CCMs, a connectivity fault between the MEP and RMEP occurs. A MIP needs to be used to locate the fault.

Precautions

IEEE 802.1ag has two versions: IEEE 802.1ag Draft 7 and IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007. This command can be used only on the device running IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007.

After the MIP creation rule is set in an MD or the default MD, all interfaces in the MD or default MD use this rule to create a MIP.

If the MIP creation rule is default or explicit, the device creates a MIP automatically according to the rule.

The mip create-type command can be used only on the Layer 2 interfaces to which the MD or default MD belongs.

Example

# Set the MIP creation rule to none in the MD named customer.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] cfm md customer level 1
[HUAWEI-md-customer] mip create-type none

# Set the MIP creation rule to default in the default MD.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] cfm default md
[HUAWEI-default-md] mip create-type default
