Abstract

La présente demande concerne un procédé, un dispositif et un système de détection d'opérations, d'administration et de maintenance (OAM). Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un premier dispositif de réseau reçoit un premier paquet provenant d'un second dispositif de réseau par l'intermédiaire d'un tunnel, le premier paquet comprenant un en-tête de tunnel, un premier en-tête de version de protocole Internet 6 (IPv6), et un paquet OAM, le second dispositif de réseau étant un dispositif d'entrée du tunnel et le premier dispositif de réseau étant un dispositif de sortie du tunnel; le premier dispositif de réseau détermine le type de détection OAM selon une adresse de destination (DA) du premier en-tête IPv6; le premier dispositif de réseau effectue une détection selon le type de détection OAM. La solution technique fournie par la présente demande provoque le traitement d'un paquet de détection OAM (par exemple, le premier paquet) et le traitement d'un paquet de données par des dispositifs, autres qu'un dispositif de sortie de tunnel, sur un trajet de transmission de paquets devant être cohérent.
