Abstract
A management method of an optical fiber network system is disclosed. The optical fiber network system includes at least one user apparatus and an optical network unit (ONU), and the ONU is connected with the user apparatus. The management method includes the steps of: adopting at least one information string, which is set by an ONU management and control interface (OMCI), by the optical network unit; packing the information string into a management packet; and transmitting the management packet to the user apparatus by the optical network unit according to an Ethernet protocol.

A management method of an optical fiber network system, the optical fiber network system comprising at least one user apparatus and an optical network unit (ONU), the ONU being connected with the user apparatus, the management method comprising steps of:
- adopting at least one information string, which is set by an ONU management and control interface (OMCI), by the optical network unit;
- packing the information string into a data field of a management packet by the optical network unit;
- adding an OMCI ending code to the data field, wherein the OMCI ending code is disposed adjacent to the information string;
- identifying an ending bit of the information string by the OMCI ending code;
- and
- transmitting the management packet to the user apparatus by the optical network unit according to an Ethernet protocol.
A management method of an optical fiber network system, the optical fiber network system comprising at least one user apparatus and an optical network unit (ONU), the ONU being connected with the user apparatus, the management method comprising steps of:
- receiving an OMCI packet, which comprises the information string, by the optical network unit, wherein the information string has a header, a handle association identifier, a data type, a device identifier, a data identifier, a data content;
- adopting at least one information string, which is set by an ONU management and control interface (OMCI), by the optical network unit;
- packing the information string into a data field of a management packet by the optical network unit;
- adding an OMCI ending code to the data field, wherein the OMCI ending code is disposed adjacent to the data content of the information string;
- identifying an ending bit of the information string by the OMCI ending code;
- transmitting an OAMPDU packet the user apparatus to perform a discovery procedure by the optical network unit according to an Ethernet protocol;
- transmitting hardware information to the optical network unit through an acknowledgement packet by the user apparatus;
- storing a media access control address in a memory of the optical network unit;
- and
- transmitting the management packet through the media access control address.
An optical network unit, comprising:
- a receiving module for receiving an ONU management and control interface (OMCI) packet transmitted from an optical line terminal;
- a converting module electrically connected to the receiving module for adopting at least one information string from the OMCI packet, and packs the information string into a data field of a management packet, wherein the information string has a header, a handle association identifier, a data type, a device identifier, a data identifier, a data content, an OMCI ending code is disposed adjacent to the data content of the information string and an ending bit of the information string is identified by the OMCI ending code;
- and
- a transmitting module electrically connected to the converting module for transmitting the management packet to a user apparatus.
