Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for utilizing loopback operations to identify a faulty subsystem layer in a multilayered system are disclosed. One method includes executing a plurality of loopback operations at a respective plurality of loopback points positioned among subsystem layers of a multilayered system and detecting a failed loopback operation among the plurality of loopback operations. The method further includes identifying a faulty subsystem layer among the subsystem layers by comparing the failed loopback operation and a previously conducted successful loopback operation corresponding to a preceding subsystem layer that is adjacent to the faulty subsystem layer within the multilayered system.
