Remote MEPs can only be configured if local domain service access points
(DSAPs) have already been created (see "Configuring Maintenance End Points")
at the same maintenance level and in the same MA. DSAPs are MEPs that exist
on the edge of the domain, and act as primary service access points for end-to-
end cross-check, loop-back, and link-trace functions.
The MEP cross-check start delay which sets the maximum delay that a device
waits for remote MEPs to come up before starting the cross-check operation
can be configured on the Configure Global page (see "Configuring Global
Settings for CFM").
SNMP traps for continuity check events discovered by cross-check operations
can also be configured on the Configure Global page (see "Configuring Global
Settings for CFM").
