Summary:A device may monitor a communication between network devices for an error associated with the communication. The device may detect the error associated with the communication between the network devices. The device may perform a comparison of an error metric and a threshold error metric. The error metric may be associated with the error. The device may determine whether the comparison indicates that the error metric satisfies the threshold error metric. The device may identify a source of the error using a loopback test based on determining whether the comparison indicates that the error metric satisfies the threshold error metric. The device may provide error source information based on identifying the source of the error. The error source information may identify the source of the error.
