776 Configuring Connectivity Fault Management
Troubleshooting Tasks
In the event of a connectivity loss between MEPs, the administrator can
perform path discovery, similar to traceroute, from one MEP to any MEP or
MIP in a maintenance domain using Link Trace Messages (LTMs). The
connectivity loss is narrowed down using path discovery and is verified using
Loop-back Messages (LBMs), which are similar to ping operations in IP
networks.
