Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose an iOAM packet transmission method and related apparatus. In the method, a tail node device in a measurement domain receives a first iOAM packet, and determines whether the first iOAM packet includes an important data identifier. If the first iOAM packet includes the important data identifier, the tail node device generates, based on the first iOAM packet, a notification message that includes first node information, and sends the notification message to a management device in an iOAM network. According to the solution in the embodiments of this application, only when the received first iOAM packet includes the important data identifier, the tail node device generates the notification message based on the first iOAM packet and reports the notification message.
