Since the vCM operates on the DPoE System (instead of the D-ONU), a means of communication from the vCM to the D-ONU is required. The D-ONU does not require an IP stack. Therefore, [802.3] standard EPON OAM is used for messaging between the vCM on the DPoE System and the D-ONU. The OAM Extensions specified here provide additional means for such messaging for parameters not supported in the [802.3] standard EPON OAM. The [802.3] specifications allow vendor-specific OAM extensions. This document describes the usage of this extension feature to provide for a common set of OAM extensions to support interoperability between all vendors that choose to develop products in accordance with the DPoE specifications.
