The ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface command starts EFM OAM remote loopback tests on the specific port. The EFM OAM remote loopback control OAMPDU will be sent to the peering device to trigger a remote loopback.
The ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface command stops EFM OAM remote loopback tests on the specific port. The EFM OAM remote loopback control OAMPDU will be sent to the peering device to stop a remote loopback.The set protocols dot1x interface authentication-open disable command enables
Command Syntax
ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface <interface-name>
ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface <interface-name>
Parameter
Parameter | Description |
interface <interface-name> | Specifies an interface name. The value could be a physical interface, for example, ge-1/1/1, xe-1/1/2, and so on. |
Usage Guidelines
When configuring this command, pay attention to the following notes:
The commands ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface and ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface are operational mode commands which should be executed under the prompt “admin@PICOS>”.
Only the active mode end can run these two commands to start or stop EFM OAM remote loopback tests.
Before starting the EFM OAM remote loopback tests, make sure:
The EFM OAM connection has been established successfully.
Users have to configure command set protocols ethernet-oam interface <interface-name> remote-loopback supported on the responding end to enable reactions to loopback control OAMPDUs from peers.
EFM OAM remote loopback tests will fail if above conditions are not met. After all of the conditions are met, you need to execute the command ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface <interface-name> again to start EFM OAM remote loopback tests again.
When remote loopback function is implemented, the interface no longer participates in any other Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocols.
When the remote loopback test is completed, you should use the command ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface to disable EFM OAM remote loopback tests on the port.
It is not allowed to modify the EFM OAM mode when remote loopback function is implementing.
The device sends a Loopback Control OAMPDU to the peer when run command ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface <interface-name> or ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface <interface-name>.
Example
Start EFM OAM remote loopback tests on the specific port.
admin@PICOS> ethernet-oam remote-loopback start interface te-1/1/1
Stop EFM OAM remote loopback tests on the specific port.
admin@PICOS> ethernet-oam remote-loopback stop interface te-1/1/1
