set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level
To configure continuity-check message attributes for a specific level of the local MEPs, use the set
ethernet-cfm continuity-check level command.
set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level level vlan vlans interval interval-value [loss-threshold
threshold]
Syntax Description
Defaults The default settings are as follows:
interval-value: 10 seconds
threshold: 2 messages
Command Types Switch command.
Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines The set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level command sets the broadcast attribute of local MEPs.
To configure how often continuity-check messages are sent, use the interval-value argument. If you
configure the interval value too small and multiple small interval configurations exist, a warning
message is displayed.
You can enter the threshold argument to specify the message loss threshold. Whenever a
continuity-check entry is aged out, a syslog message is generated indicating that the connection to the
MPID may have issues.
Examples This example shows how to configure continuity-check message attributes for a level of 100, a VLAN
range of 10 to 100, an interval of 800 seconds, and a loss threshold of two messages:
Console> (enable) set ethernet-cfm continuity-check level 100 vlan 10-100 interval 800
loss-threshold 4
Continuity Check for ME level 100 in vlan 10-100 interval set to 800.
Console> (enable)

vlan vlans VLAN or a range of VLANs on which to do the check; valid values are from
1 to 4094.
internal interval-value Interval between continuity check messages; valid values are 0 to 2000
seconds.
loss-threshold
threshold
(Optional) Specifies the number of continuity-check messages that can be
lost before cleaning up the corresponding entry in the continuity-check
database; valid values are from 0 to 10.
