Y.1731 MEP Definitions and Management

network is identified uniquely by MEG (Name, level), MEP ID , VLAN tag VID and COS
bits value provided in each frame. To provide this uniqueness , MEP is configured on ML
unit using Port , Direction (always toward wire), VID, MEPID.
In addition, MEP connectivity control and performance monitor parameters can be
configured.
Note that each MEG allows up to 8 MEPs, where the maximum number of MEPs supported
by each system may vary according to the ML model.
To add a MEP (to a defined MEG)
