Well, anything sold for a Metro-E application nowadays, whether it supports MPLS or not, will always have some kind of OAM capability. This is just vendors building what the industry asked for years ago, and thinks the industry still needs today. For us, 98% of the customers on our Metro-E network are simple IP customers, i.e., DIA or IP Transit. They don't care about OAM. They just want a connection they can use to access their cloud services. Of the remaining 2% who buy only EoMPLS services, 0.5% of those ask about OAM. To put it another way - if vendors could build boxes and price them cheaper because they had little or no OAM features (either by design or via licenses), I'd buy them in an African minute.
