wwpOamMode
Module: WWP-OAM-MIB
OID (symbolic): WWP-OAM-MIB::wwpOamMode
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6141.2.400.1.2.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This object configures the mode of OAM operation for this Ethernet like interface. OAM on Ethernet interfaces may be in 'active' mode or 'passive' mode. These two modes differ in that active mode provides additional capabilities to initiate monitoring activities with the remote OAM peer entity, while passive mode generally waits for the peer to initiate OAM actions with it. As an example, an active OAM entity can put the remote OAM entity in a loopback state, where a passive OAM entity cannot.
The default value of wwpOamMode is dependent on the type of system on which this Ethernet like interface resides. The default value should be 'active(1)' unless it is known that this system should take on a subservient role to the other device connected over this interface.
Changing this value results in incrementing the configuration revision field of locally generated OAMPDUs (30.3.6.1.12) and potentially re-doing the OAM discovery process if the wwpOamOperStatus was already operational(9).
What is wwpOamMode?
This OID configures whether this interface's OAM entity operates in active(1) mode, which can initiate actions like remote loopback, or passive(2) mode, which only responds to a peer's OAM requests. An admin typically leaves customer-facing ports as active and CPE-side ports as passive, since changing this value re-triggers OAM discovery if it was already operational.
