About This Document

BFD Configuration

This chapter describes how to create a Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) session to quickly detect link failures on a network.

VRRP Configuration

The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a fault-tolerant protocol that allows logical devices to operate separately from physical devices. VRRP improves device reliability and simplifies host configurations.

VRRP6 Configuration

The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a fault-tolerant protocol. IPv6-based VRRP is called VRRP for IPv6 (VRRP6). VRRP6 allows logical devices to operate separately from physical devices, improving device reliability and simplifying host configurations.

Ethernet OAM Configuration

LPT Configuration

Dual-Device Backup Configuration

This chapter provides an overview of dual-device backup, describes its configuration and maintenance, and provides a configuration example.

Bit-Error-Triggered Protection Switching Configuration

MPLS OAM Configuration

This chapter describes the basic principles of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) operation, administration and maintenance (OAM). It also describes how to configure MPLS OAM to monitor label switched paths (LSPs) and pseudo wires (PWs) and provides configuration examples.

MPLS-TP OAM Configuration

This chapter describes the basic principles of Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) operation, administration and maintenance (OAM). This chapter also describes how to configure the continuity check (CC), connectivity verification (CV), loss measurement (LM), delay measurement (DM), and forward defect indication (FDI) functions, and provides configuration examples.
