Object

column Enumeration
This object indicates 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 cienaCesOamMode 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.  
              
If this values gets changed it 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
cienaCesOamOperStatus was already operational(9).
