NID must have an IP address.
Loop should not be configured.

Information About Y.1564

ITU-T Y.1564 (Or sometimes calledY.156sam or EtherSAM - Ethernet Service Activation Methodology) is a QoS andnetwork performance ITU-T Ethernet-based service test methodology. This testingprocedure tests service turn-up, installation and troubleshooting ofEthernet-based services.

Y.1564 allows simultaneous testing of multiple Ethernet services andmeasures. It also validates the different QoS mechanisms provisioned in thenetwork to prioritize different service types - allowing faster deployment,easier service and network troubleshooting.
