To run an OAM validation test on a VLAN service
Prerequisites
A validator test suite must be created for the tested entity. See
Chapter 90, OAM diagnostic tests for more information about how to create a validator test suite.
Note: As an alternative, you can also run an OAM validation test on the service by performing a One Time Validation. This is a mostly automated procedure and is described in
To run a one-time validation test on a service .
