I thought 802.3ah was non-intrusive too, am I missing something?

Totally agree, B is the way to go for non-intrusive testing!

C is spot on, it loops customer data for testing.

Wait, isn't D just a rephrasing of A? Seems off.

A is correct, it does stop customer data.

I feel like 802.3ah does loop customer data back, but I can't remember if it's considered intrusive or not.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I recall that 802.1ag uses MEPs for non-intrusive testing, which is different from 802.3ah.

I think 802.3ah is the one that can disrupt customer data, but I might be mixing it up with 802.1ag.

I remember that 802.1ag is more about end-to-end connectivity, but I'm not sure how it compares to 802.3ah in terms of intrusiveness.

I'm a bit confused about the difference between "intrusive" and "non-intrusive" in this context. I'll need to review those concepts before I can answer this question.

The 802.1ag loopback doesn't stop customer data, but the 802.3ah one does. I'm pretty confident about that distinction.

Okay, let's see. The 802.1ag loopback is a non-intrusive ping, while the 802.3ah loopback is an intrusive test that loops customer data. I think I've got it.

This question seems straightforward, but I want to make sure I understand the differences between the two loopback functions before answering.

Hmm, let me think... Ah, got it! The 802.1ag loopback is a non-intrusive ping, while the 802.3ah one actually loops the customer data. B and C are the winners!

So, B and C are the correct answers then. Good job on figuring that out!

Yeah, the 802.3ah loopback actually loops the customer data, that's a big difference.

I agree, the 802.1ag loopback is just a ping, not intrusive like the 802.3ah one.

This question is making my head spin like an 802.3ah loopback! But I think B and C are the right choices.
LE

I think you're right, those options make the most sense.
SH

I agree, B and C seem like the correct choices.

B and C are the way to go. The 802.1ag loopback is a ping-like test, while the 802.3ah one is an intrusive loop of the actual traffic.
LU

Exactly, it's important to understand the differences in loopback functions.
VA

So, 802.1ag is more like a diagnostic tool while 802.3ah is more disruptive.
TW

Yes, C is the intrusive test that loops customer data in 802.3ah.
MA

I agree, B is a non-intrusive 'ping' test in 802.1ag.
DA
Dan

Yes, it will loop customer data.
WH
Whitley

But the loopback function in 802.3ah is intrusive, right?
CR
Cristen

I agree, it's like a 'ping' test.
MA

A and C seem to be the correct answers. The 802.1ag loopback tests customer traffic, while the 802.3ah loopback actually loops the customer data back.
LE
Lemuel

C) The loopback function in 802.3ah is an intrusive test that will loop customer data.
