Configuring CFD
About CFD
Connectivity Fault Detection (CFD), which conforms to IEEE 802.1ag Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) and ITU-T Y.1731, is an end-to-end link layer OAM mechanism. CFD is used for link connectivity detection, fault verification, and fault location in MPLS Layer 2 VPNs. For information about MPLS Layer 2 VPNs, see MPLS L2VPN and VPLS in MPLS Configuration Guide.
Basic CFD concepts
Maintenance domain
A maintenance domain (MD) defines the network or part of the network where CFD plays its role. An MD is identified by its MD name.
Maintenance association
A maintenance association (MA) is a part of an MD. You can configure multiple MAs in an MD as needed. An MA is identified by the MD name + MA name.
In an MPLS Layer 2 VPN, an MA can only serve the specified cross-connect or virtual switch instance (VSI).
Maintenance point
An MP is configured on a port and belongs to an MA. MPs include the following types: maintenance association end points (MEPs) and maintenance association intermediate points (MIPs). Only MEPs are supported in the current software version.
MEPs define the boundary of the MA. Each MEP is identified by a MEP ID.
In an MPLS Layer 2 VPN, the MA to which a MEP belongs defines the cross-connect or VSI of packets sent by the MEP.
MEPs include inward-facing MEPs and outward-facing MEPs:
· An inward-facing MEP does not send packets to its host port. Rather, it sends packets to other ports on the device. The packets are broadcast in the cross-connect or VSI to which the MEP belongs. Only inward-facing MEPs are supported in the current software version.
· An outward-facing MEP sends packets to its host port.
MEP list
A MEP list is a collection of local MEPs allowed to be configured and the remote MEPs to be monitored in the same MA. It lists all the MEPs configured on different devices in the same MA. The MEPs all have unique MEP IDs. When a MEP receives from a remote device a continuity check message (CCM) carrying a MEP ID not in the MEP list of the MA, it drops the message.
The local device must send CCM messages carrying the Remote Defect Indication (RDI) flag bits. Otherwise, the peer device cannot sense certain failures. When a local MEP has not learned all remote MEPs in the MEP list, the MEPs in the MA might not carry the RDI flag bits in CCMs.
CFD levels
MD levels
To accurately locate faults, CFD introduces eight levels (from 0 to 7) to MDs. The bigger the number, the higher the level and the larger the area covered. Domains can touch or nest (if the outer domain has a higher level than the nested one) but cannot intersect or overlap.
MD levels facilitate fault location and make fault location more accurate. As shown in Figure 1, MD_A in light blue nests MD_B in dark blue. If a connectivity fault is detected at the boundary of MD_A, any of the devices in MD_A, including Device A through Device E, might fail. If a connectivity fault is also detected at the boundary of MD_B, the failure points can be any of Device B through Device D. If the devices in MD_B can operate correctly, at least Device C is operational.
|
|
NOTE: This section assumes that physical links between devices are in good condition. |
CFD exchanges messages and performs operations on a per-domain basis. By planning MDs correctly in a network, you can use CFD to rapidly locate failure points.
MA and MP levels
The level of an MA equals the level of the MD to which the MA belongs.
The level of a MEP equals the level of the MD to which the MEP belongs.
Packet processing of MPs
A MEP forwards packets at a higher level without any processing and only processes packets of its level or lower.
CFD functions
CFD functions, which are implemented through the MPs, include:
· Continuity check (CC).
· Loopback (LB).
· Linktrace (LT).
· Alarm indication signal (AIS).
· Loss measurement (LM).
· Delay measurement (DM).
· Test (TST).
Continuity check
Connectivity faults are usually caused by device faults or configuration errors. Continuity check examines the connectivity between MEPs. This function is implemented through periodic sending of CCMs by the MEPs. A CCM sent by one MEP is intended to be received by all the other MEPs in the same MA. If a MEP fails to receive the CCMs within 3.5 times the sending interval, the link is considered as faulty and a log is generated. When multiple MEPs send CCMs at the same time, the multipoint-to-multipoint link check is achieved. CCM frames are multicast frames.
Loopback
Similar to ping at the IP layer, loopback verifies the connectivity between a source device and a target device. To implement this function, the source MEP sends loopback messages (LBMs) to the target MEP. Depending on whether the source MEP can receive a loopback reply message (LBR) from the target MEP, the link state between the two can be verified.
LBM frames are multicast and unicast frames. The device can send and receive unicast LBM frames, and can receive multicast LBM frames but cannot send multicast LBM frames. LBR frames are unicast frames.
Linktrace
Linktrace is similar to traceroute. It identifies the path between the source MEP and the target MP. The source MEP sends the linktrace messages (LTMs) to the target MP. After receiving the messages, the target MP sends back linktrace reply messages (LTRs) to the source MEP. Based on the reply messages, the source MEP can identify the path to the target MP. LTM frames are multicast frames and LTRs are unicast frames.
LM
The loss measurement (LM) function measures the frame loss between a pair of MEPs, including the following types:
· One-way LM—The source MEP sends loss measurement messages (LMMs) to the target MEP. The target MEP responds with loss measurement replies (LMRs). The source MEP calculates the number of lost frames according to the counter values of the two consecutive LMRs (the current LMR and the previous LMR). LMMs and LMRs are unicast frames.
The one-way LM function can be implemented in one of the following ways:
¡ Short-period LM—The source MEP sends a configurable number of LMMs at a configurable interval. The test result is printed when the test ends.
¡ Continual LM—The source MEP continually sends LMMs at a configurable interval until continual LM is administratively disabled. To view the test result, use the display cfd slm history command on the target MEP.
¡ Scheduled LM—Performs one-way LM based on the specified duration. The source MEP sends LMMs at a configurable interval until the specified duration timer expires. To view the test result, use the display cfd slm history command on the target MEP.
· Two-way LM—The source MEP sends CCMs to the target MEP. The target MEP responds with CCMs. The source MEP calculates the number of lost frames according to the counter values of the two consecutive CCMs received (the current CCM and the previous CCM).
The two-way LM function is implemented as continual LM. The number of frames received and the number of frames sent are padded in the CCMs sent by the source MEP. After you disable two-way LM, the device no longer pads the number of frames received or sent in the CCMs. To view the test result, use the display cfd dlm history command on the target MEP.
· Single-ended synthetic LM—The source MEP sends single loss measurement messages (SLMs) to the target MEP. The target MEP responds with single loss measurement replies (SLRs). The source MEP calculates the number of lost frames according to the number of sent SLMs and the number of received SLRs. SLMs and SLRs are unicast frames.
The single-ended synthetic LM function can be implemented in one of the following ways:
¡ Short-period LM—The source MEP sends a configurable number of SLMs at a configurable interval. The test result is printed when the test ends.
¡ Continual LM—The source MEP continually sends SLMs at a configurable interval until continual LM is administratively disabled. To view the test result, use the display cfd synthetic-slm history command on the target MEP.
¡ Scheduled LM—Performs single-ended synthetic LM based on the specified duration. The source MEP sends SLMs at a configurable interval until the specified duration timer expires. To view the test result, use the display cfd synthetic-slm history command on the target MEP.
DM
The DM function measures frame delays between two MEPs.
· Two-way frame delay measurement
The source MEP sends a delay measurement message (DMM), which carries the transmission time, to the target MEP. When the target MEP receives the DMM, it responds with a delay measurement reply (DMR). The DMR carries the reception time and transmission time of the DMM and the transmission time of the DMR. When the source MEP receives the DMR, it does the following:
¡ Records the DMR reception time.
¡ Calculates the link transmission delay and jitter according to the DMR reception time and DMM transmission time.
DMM frames and DMR frames are unicast frames.
The two-way DM function can be implemented in one of the following ways:
¡ Short-period DM—The source MEP sends a configurable number of DMMs at a configurable interval. The test result is printed when the test ends.
¡ Continual DM—The source MEP continually sends DMMs at a configurable interval until continual DM is administratively disabled. To view the test result, use the display cfd dm two-way history command on the target MEP.
¡ Scheduled DM—Performs one-way DM based on the specified duration. The source MEP sends DMMs at a configurable interval until the specified duration timer expires. To view the test result, use the display cfd dm two-way history command on the target MEP.
Threshold alarm
The threshold alarm function monitors the transmission performance of links. The system generates an alarm when the transmission performance metric of a link crosses the specified upper limit or lower limit three times in succession.

NOTE: · The value range for the interval field value is 1 to 7. · The CCM messages with an interval field value of 1 to 3 are short-interval CCM messages. The CCM messages with an interval field value of 4 to 7 are long-interval CCM messages. |
Restrictions and guidelines
When you configure the CCM interval, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
· Configure the same CCM interval field value for all MEPs in the same MA.
· If the device cannot process short-interval CCM messages, setting the CCM interval field value to smaller than 4 might cause the CC function to operate unsteadily.

Network configuration
As shown in Figure 2:
· Configure a static PW between PE 1 and PE 2 to enable CE 1 and CE 2 to communicate with each other. Assume that the MAC addresses of Device A through Device D are 0010-FC01-6511, 0010-FC02-6512, 0010-FC03-6513, and 0010-FC04-6514, respectively.
· Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/6.1 on Device A and Device B as AC interfaces, and associate them with cross-connect svc of cross-connect group vpna.
· Assign the network to MD_A (level 5). MD_A has two edge interfaces: GigabitEthernet 1/0/6.1 on Device A and GigabitEthernet 1/0/6.1 on Device B. They are both inward-facing MEPs.
· Configure CC to monitor the connectivity between the inward-facing MEPs. Configure LB to locate link faults.
· After the status information of the entire network is obtained, use LT, LM, and DM to detect link faults.
