Configuring a Performance Test

You can perform performance detection, to check if a link between two nodes is normal.

The source and sink MEPs, and MIPs in the same maintenance domain must be created.

The source maintenance point that initiates a performance test must be an MEP. The sink maintenance point that responds to the performance test can be an MEP or MIP.
Performing performance detection does not affect the service.

In the NE Explorer, select an Ethernet board and choose Configuration > Ethernet Maintenance > Ethernet Service OAM from the Function Tree.
Optional: Click Query to query OAM information from the NE.
Select a node, click OAM Operation and select Performance Detect. The Performance Detect window is displayed.
Set Send Mode.
- Burst Mode, you need to set Packet Length, Timeout, and Detect Attempts.
- If you select Continue Mode, you need to set Packet Length, and Timeout.
In the Maintenance Point area, set Source MP ID and Destination MP ID.
Click Start Detect and view the returned result in the Detail pane.
