b. The HOLD-OFF command
c. The MANUAL DELETE command
d. The FORCED DELETE command

2. Which of the following sentences is true about ERP convergence?


a. If a LAG is configured on NNI ports, ERP takes more time to converge
b. In Revertive mode, the RPL link is always the link that is blocked
c. When MAC learning takes place, it triggers a change in the network topology
d. Non-revertive mode is configurable only for Major ring instances

3. Which of the following statements is true about LAG Subgroup?

c. A Subgroup is a LAG configured over an ERP Sub-Ring instance
d. A Subgroup is implemented in Load-Sharing configuration

4. Why is LAG application on NNI ports not recommended?


a. LAG on NNI should not be used for protection since other packet or optical protection schemes may exist for NNI network
protection
b. LAG on NNI should not be used because it prevents the configuration of an ERP instance
c. LAG on NNI works only in Load-Sharing mode
d. LAG on NNI needs to be configured over the same type of L2 cards

a. ETH-SLM collects the results of synthetic loss measurements between a pair of MEPs. The calculation is done entirely by
the Controller MEP
b. ETH-SLM collects the results of synthetic loss measurements between a pair of MEPs. The calculation is done by both the
remote and the local MEP
c. The LMM/LMR message exchange is used to collect local and remote MEP calculation
