Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for setting a maintenance association (MA), an apparatus, and a system. A correspondence between an MA and a maintenance association end point (MEP) and a correspondence between the MEP and an optical network unit (ONU) are set on an optical line terminal (OLT), where the MA includes an MA virtual local area network VLAN, the MEP includes an MEP VLAN; and the method for setting an MA includes: sending, by the OLT, a configuration message to the ONU to which an MEP belongs, where the configuration message carries an MEP whose MEP VLAN has a valid value and an MA whose MA VLAN has an invalid value.
