Article summary

This article describes how to enable the Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) and Locked (LCK) features.

CLI Configurations

At Switch6

  • Verify CCM errors
your product# show ethernet cfm errors

Shows no link failure, as no error is detected at Switch 6

  • Make interface P3, P4 as down, to raise a defect/fault in sample topology.
your product(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/3
your product(config-if)# shutdown
your product(config-if)# exit
your product(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/4
your product(config-if)# shutdown
  • Verify CCM errors.
