CONFIG Commands
802.3ah Ethernet OAM Settings
802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) Operations Administration and Maintenance
(OAM) is a group of network management functions that provide network fault indication,
performance information, and diagnosis using special-purpose Ethernet OAM frames.
These are exchanged between your Gateway and service provider Access Node (AN)
devices for network fault management, performance analysis and fault isolation.
All VDSL and Ethernet WAN Motorola Netopia Gateways support Ethernet OAM options.
More Ethernet Packet-Transfer-Mode (PTM) enabled xDSL Motorola Netopia Gateways will
support 802.3ah Ethernet OAM options in future releases.
802.3ah Ethernet OAM exchanges periodic Ethernet OAM heartbeat frames between the
endpoints of the physical link being monitored, and thus discovers and keeps-alive the Link
connectivity and reports faults if the link goes down. Supported OAM request and
response types are: remote loopback enable, remote loopback disable, variable request,
variable response.
