Example for Configuring Dual-ended Frame Loss Measurement in VLL Networking

This section provides an example showing how to configure dual-ended frame loss measurement in VLL networking.

Networking Requirements

With the increasing popularization and wide application of the Internet, various value-added services such as IPTV, video conferencing, and VoIP services are widely deployed. Link connectivity and network performance determine the Quality of Services (QoS) on bearer networks. Therefore, performance monitoring is especially important for service transmission channels.

As shown in Figure 1, CFM is configured between each CE and PE and between PEs. To provide high-quality audio services, providers hope to monitor the frame loss over mobile bearer links in real time, while monitoring link connectivity. Monitoring the frame loss over mobile bearer links allows the providers to respond quickly to video service quality deterioration.

Interfaces 1 through 2 in this example are GE 0/1/1, GE 0/1/2 respectively.


Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:
  1. Configure on-demand dual-ended frame loss measurement for the PW between the PEs to periodically collect frame loss statistics.

Data Preparation

To complete the configuration, you need the following data:

  • Configure the ID of an L2VC of a VLL between PE1 and PE2.

  • Configure the names of the MD and MA between PE1 and PE2 and between CE1 and PE1.

  • Configure the interval at which LM messages are sent.

Procedure

  1. Configure dual-ended frame loss measurement for the PW based on ACs on PEs.

    1. Configure a VLL connection.

      Configure a VLL connection between PE1 and PE2. The configuration details are not provided here. For details, see the chapter "VLL Configuration" in the HUAWEI NetEngine 8000 F Series Router Configuration Guide - VPN or configuration files in this configuration example.

      After completing the configuration, run the display mpls l2vc command on each PE to view information about the VC and AC.

    2. Configure basic Ethernet CFM functions and specify the maintenance association end point (MEP) type as inward.

      Configure basic Ethernet CFM functions on each PE. Specify the Ethernet CFM protocol in the version of IEEE Standard 802.1ag-2007. Create an MD named md1 and an MA named ma1, and bind the MA to the VLL.
