You can allow a remote DTE to set a local interface into remote loopback mode on IQ2
and IQ2-E Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and all Ethernet interfaces on the MX Series routers
and EX Series switches. When a remote-loopback request is sent by a remote DTE, the
Junos OS places the local interface into loopback mode. When an interface is in loopback
mode, all frames except OAM PDUs are looped back without any changes to the frames.
OAM PDUs continue to be sent to the management plane and processed. By default, the
remote loopback feature is not enabled.
To enable remote loopback, include the
protocol oam ethernet link-fault-management interface interface-name negotiation-options]
hierarchy level:
[edit protocol oam ethernet link-fault-management interface interface-name
negotiation-options]
allow-remote-loopback;
NOTE: Activation of OAM remote loopback may result in data frame loss.
