Configuring a segment identifier in a customer premise equipment (CPE) connected to a network. Several OAM loopback cells containing possible segment identifiers in the headers may be transmitted. If an accurate segment identifier is used, the corresponding loopback cell may be received again in the CPE as an end system at the other end of the virtual circuit may loopback the cell. Thus, the CPE may be configured with the segment identifier corresponding to the received loopback cell. Once configured, new additional cells may be transmitted with the configured segment identifier.
