A MEP has lost contact with one or more MEPs. A notification (fault alarm) is sent to the management entity with the OID of the MEP that has detected the fault. Whenever a MEP loses contact with one or more other MEPs, it may or may not generate a Fault Alarm to warn the system administrator of the problem, as controlled by the MEP Fault Notification Generator State Machine and associated Managed Objects. Only the highest-priority defect, as shown in Table 20-1, is reported in the Fault Alarm. hwDot1agCfmRMepMacAddress The MAC address of the remote faulty MEP hwDot1agCfmRMepHighestPrDefect The fault in the highest level hwDot1agCfmMdName The name of the faulty MD hwDot1agCfmMdLevel The level of the faulty MD hwDot1agCfmMaName The name of the faulty MA
