Saku speaks from the privileged position of an infrastructure owner. We assume that interface connectivity is 
provided by L1 links, with OEO in transit nodes as a worst case.

But the clever budget conscious among us have deployed router links over provided MPLS based L2 services as critical 
infrastructure. We have an invisible WAN. In the absence of L1 PM statistics, how do we validate service over other 
networks? 802.3ag and y.1731 attempt to answer that question.

Fair, yes OAM is likely least bad solution here. Or vendor proprietary
solutions like Cisco IP SLA or Juniper RPM.
