Of course, any multi-hop L2 path goes through MAC relays. But in your diagram, there is no L2 path from the *TX interface* of OAM sublayer A to *RX interface* of OAM sublayer Z, with or without MAC relays. It has nothing to do with VLC sublayer and where it is located.

OAM A and OAM Z are OAM Sublayer entities.
OAM A might be a “Manager” for OAM Z (e.g. OAM Z is on an ONU)
Agreed, an L2 path needs to exist… it could exist via the MAC relay, but VLC is below MAC relay, so how does the frame get back up the stack?

From: Glen Kramer <glen.kramer@xxxxxxxxxxxx> What are OAM A and OAM Z exactly, in IEEE terms? Are these OAM Clients?
For OAM Client A to talk to OAM Client Z, there should exist a L2 path from TX interface of OAM sublayer A to RX interface of OAM sublayer Z. You diagram does not show any such path.

I should have asked my question more specifically...
What happens if OAM A wants to talk to OAM Z via VLC? Sent from my mobile device
