Command Syntax

Parameter

Parameter

Description

interface <interface-name>

Specifies an interface name. The value could be a physical interface.

mode <active | passive>

Specifies the EFM OAM mode. The value could be active or passive.

Active mode causes the port to initiate the negotiation process and continually send out EFM OAM information PDUs.
Passive mode waits for the peer to initiate the negotiation process. A passive mode port cannot initiate remote loopback activity with the peer.

By default, the EFM OAM mode is active.

Example

Configure the EFM OAM mode to passive for the Ethernet port enabled EFM OAM.
