Re: [EFM] 802.3ah OAM question
All,
Think about it. If the remote node, in loop back mode can not inject
packets, how will the local node know if any problems that might appear are
in the down loop or in the up loop? The purpose of the loop back is for
testing. The one of the purposes for OAM packets is to report
discrepancies. From a troubleshooting view, one without the other is only
half of the picture.
Thanks,
