Overview

This node interacts with the SmartOLT API to manage Optical Network Units (ONUs). Specifically, the 'Shutdown ONU WiFi port by ONU unique external ID' operation allows users to remotely shut down a specified WiFi port on an ONU identified by its unique external ID. This is useful in network management scenarios where disabling WiFi ports on specific ONUs is required for maintenance, troubleshooting, or security purposes.

Use Case Examples

1. A network administrator wants to disable the WiFi port 2 on an ONU with a known unique external ID to prevent unauthorized access.
2. An automated workflow shuts down WiFi ports on ONUs that are flagged for security issues based on external monitoring.

Output

JSON

• response - The API response confirming the shutdown action or providing status information.

Dependencies

• Requires SmartOLT API credentials for authentication.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues include invalid ONU External ID or WiFi port values, which may cause the API to return errors indicating the ONU or port was not found.
• Network connectivity issues or incorrect API credentials can lead to authentication failures or request timeouts.
• Error messages from the API should be checked for details; ensuring the ONU External ID and WiFi port are correctly specified usually resolves most errors.
