| Description | When set to 'true', this object forces CDL Hop Terminating
behavior at this interface. A CDL Hop Terminating Network
Element terminates (generates in one direction and consumes in
another direction) hop-by-hop CDL Defect Indications at an
interface.
When this object is set to 'false', this network element may
still act as a CDL Hop Terminating Network Element at this
interface, if either
1) Automatic Protection Switching (APS) has been configured for
this interface, or
2) this network element is an Aggregate Path Terminating
Network Element at this interface.
It is recommended to force CDL Hop Terminating behavior at
administrative boundaries. This ensures that the hop-by-hop
CDL Defect Indications (FDI-H and BDI-H) between two
administrative domains reflect only errors that occur between
the domains, even if APS is not configured for this interface. |
