Example for Configuring Frame DM for a PW

This section provides an example for configuring frame delay measurement (DM) for a pseudo wire (PW).

Networking Requirements

As a connection-oriented packet switching technology, Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is designed to convert a circuit switched transport network to a packet switched transport network. The purpose is to increase the transmission rate on the transport network.

Link reliability must be ensured when MPLS-TP is used. Voice services are used as an example. The coding and decoding of voice packets plus the transmission delay make the delay in VoIP transmission much longer than that in common circuit switched voice transmission. If the delay is longer than 400 ms, the voice quality is affected. If the delay is longer than 2 seconds, VoIP services are unavailable. In addition, if the delay variation (jitter) is longer than the transmission duration of a voice packet, voice quality will drop greatly.

Frame DM can be used to collect delay and jitter statistics and evaluate link performance. DM is a performance monitoring function provided by MPLS-TP and is classified as one-way frame DM or two-way frame DM.

The configuration of two-way frame DM is used as an example in this section. Regardless of one-way or two-way, DM configurations on LSRs are the same except the statistics display configurations.

On the network shown in Figure 1, LSRA, LSRB, and LSRC are connected using a PW built over a bidirectional label switched path (LSP). The following deployment is made to ensure the connectivity between LSRA and LSRC:

LSRA and LSRC serve as MEPs.
LSRB serves as a MIP.

Interfaces 1 through 2 in this example are GE 0/1/0 and GE 0/1/8, respectively.

**Table 1** Interfaces and IP addresses
Device	Interface	IP Address
LSRA	Loopback1	1.1.1.1/32
LSRA	GigabitEthernet0/1/0	2.1.1.1/24
LSRB	Loopback1	2.2.2.2/32
	GigabitEthernet0/1/0	2.1.1.2/24
	GigabitEthernet0/1/8	3.2.1.1/24
LSRC	Loopback1	3.3.3.3/32
LSRC	GigabitEthernet0/1/8	3.2.1.2/24

Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:

Create an ME instance and bind it to a PW.
Enable continuity check (CC) and connectivity verification (CV) on the MEP and its remote MEP (RMEP).
Enable two-way frame DM.

Data Preparation

To complete the configuration, you need the following data:

MEG name
ID of the virtual circuit (VC) bound to the ME

Procedure

Configure a PW over a bidirectional LSP.
For configuration details, see "Configuration Examples" in HUAWEI NetEngine 8000 F SeriesRouter Configuration Guide - VPN or "Configuration Files" in this section.

Create an ME instance and bind it to the PW.

# Create an ME instance named test on LSRA and bind it to the PW.

[~LSRA] mpls-tp meg test
[*LSRA-mpls-tp-meg-test] me l2vc peer-ip 3.3.3.3 vc-id 30000 vc-type vlan mep-id 1 remote-mep-id 2

# Create an ME instance named test on LSRC and bind it to the PW.

[~LSRC] mpls-tp meg test
[*LSRC-mpls-tp-meg-test] me l2vc peer-ip 1.1.1.1 vc-id 30000 vc-type vlan mep-id 2 remote-mep-id 1

Enable CC and CV on the MEP and RMEP.

# Enable CC and CV on LSRA.

[~LSRA-mpls-tp-meg-test] cc send enable
[~LSRA-mpls-tp-meg-test] cc receive enable

# Enable CC and CV on LSRC.

[~LSRC-mpls-tp-meg-test] cc send enable
[~LSRC-mpls-tp-meg-test] cc receive enable

Enable two-way frame DM.
