Abstract
An OAM capability discovery method in Ethernet passive optical network is disclosed. An OLT assigns identifications according to a registration request of the plurality of ONUs connected to the OLT. In response, the OLT transmits an OAM capability information message of the OLT to a random ONU from among the registered plurality of ONUs, and the random ONU transmits an OAM capability information message of the random ONU to the OLT, then finally the OLT transmits an OAM capability discovery completion message to ONU.
Claims8
A method for providing a transmission discovery in an Ethernet passive optical network comprising an optical line termination (OLT) connected by an optical fiber to a plurality of optical network units (ONUs), the method comprising the steps of:
- the OLT assigning identifications for each of the plurality of ONUs according to a registration request received from the plurality of ONUs;
- the OLT transmitting an OAM capability information message to the registered ONUs according to a registration sequence;
- and
- the OLT receiving an OAM capability information messages from each of the ONUs having received the OAM capability information message.
