Configuring IP SLAs Metro-Ethernet 3.0 (ITU-T Y.1731) Operations

This module describes how to configure an IP SLAs Metro-Ethernet 3.0 (ITU-T Y.1731) operation to gather the following performance measurements for Ethernet service:

  • Ethernet Delay

  • Ethernet Delay Variation

  • Ethernet Frame Loss Ratio

Finding Feature Information

Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest caveats and feature information, see Bug Search Tool and the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the feature information table.

Prerequisites for ITU-T Y.1731 Operations

IEEE-compliant Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) must be configured and enabled for Y.1731 performance monitoring to function.

Restrictions for IP SLAs Metro-Ethernet 3.0 (ITU-T Y.1731)

  • Depending on your Cisco software release, SNMP is not supported for reporting threshold events or collecting performance statistics for IP SLAs Metro-Ethernet 3.0 (ITU-T Y.1731) operations.

  • Continuity Check Message (CCM)-based dual-ended Ethernet frame loss operations are not supported.

  • In a single-ended Ethernet operation, performance measurement statistics can be retrieved only at the device on which the sender Ethernet Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) Maintenance End Point (MEP) is configured.

  • Frame Loss Measurement is not supported on Cisco ME 3600X Series and 3800X Series Ethernet Access Switches.

  • P2 IMs are to be used for CFM and Y1731

  • Do not configure rewrite on the EFPs throughout the l2 circuit to avoid losing the cos value.

  • CFMoXconnect on ASR903 works only if the control-word is switched on. To start DM timestamping, switch on the control-word if the remote end is not switched on.

  • To avoid errors in RX and TX timestamping, ensure to have Y1731 sender as PTP master, and the Y1731 responder as PTP slave.

  • Reconfigure IP SLA Y1731 while doing online insertion removal (OIR) of IM or router reload because local MEP is deleted during the course.

How to Configure IP SLAs Metro-Ethernet 3.0 (ITU-T Y.1731) Operations

Configuring a Dual-Ended Ethernet Delay or Delay Variation Operation

Perform the tasks for configuring a dual-ended operation in the order presented.


Note

To remove the MEP configurations in an already-configured dual-ended operation, always remove the MEPs in the reverse order in which they were configured. That is, remove the scheduler first, then the threshold monitoring configuration, and then the sender MEP configuration on the source device before removing the scheduler, proactive threshold monitoring, and receiver MEP configuration on the destination device.

Configuring a Receiver MEP on the Destination Device
Before You Begin

Time synchronization is required between the source and destination devices in order to provide accurate one-way delay (latency) or delay-variation measurements. Configure either Precision Time Protocol (PTP) or Network Time Protocol (NTP) on both the source and destination devices.

            Step 1 enable


            Example:
            Device> enable
             

            Enables privileged EXEC mode.

            • Enter your password if prompted.

             
            Step 2 configure terminal


            Example:
            Device# configure terminal
             

            Enters global configuration mode.

             
            Step 3 Enter one of the following commands:
            • ip sla schedule operation-number [life {forever | seconds}] [start-time {[hh:mm:ss] [month day | day month] | pending | now | after hh:mm:ss}] [ageout seconds] [recurring]
            • ip sla group schedule group-operation-number operation-id-numbers {schedule-period schedule-period-range | schedule-together} [ageout seconds] [frequency group-operation-frequency] [life {forever | seconds}] [start-time {hh:mm [:ss] [month day | day month] | pending | now | after hh:mm [:ss]}]


            Example:
            Device(config)# ip sla schedule 10 life forever start-time now
            Device(config)# ip sla schedule 10 schedule-period frequency
            Device(config)# ip sla group schedule 1 3,4,6-9 life forever start-time now 
            Device(config)# ip sla schedule 1 3,4,6-9 schedule-period 50 frequency range 80-100
             

            • Configures the scheduling parameters for an individual IP SLAs operation.

            • Specifies an IP SLAs operation group number and the range of operation numbers for a multioperation scheduler.

             
            Step 4 end


            Example:
            Device(config)# end
             

            Exits global configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

             
            Step 5 show ip sla group schedule


            Example:
            Device# show ip sla group schedule
             

            (Optional) Displays IP SLAs group schedule details.

             
            Step 6 show ip sla configuration


            Example:
            Device# show ip sla configuration
             

            (Optional) Displays IP SLAs configuration details.
