SmartOLT

Consume SmartOLT API (v0.2.17)

Overview

This node operation sets the WAN mode of an ONU (Optical Network Unit) to PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) using the ONU's unique external ID. It is useful in network management scenarios where an administrator needs to configure the WAN connection type of a specific ONU device remotely. For example, an ISP technician can automate the configuration of customer ONUs to use PPPoE for authentication and internet access.

Use Case Examples

  1. Set the WAN mode of an ONU identified by its unique external ID to PPPoE with specified username and password.
  2. Include additional configuration options such as IP protocol type and IPv6 settings when setting the WAN mode.
