WANG Liang~1, CHEN Fu-shen~1, NIE Wei-qing~2, et al. OAM software implementation of EPON system. [J]. (2):13-16(2006) DOI: 10.13756/j.gtxyj.2006.02.005.
the EPON system needs a carrier-class management capability
which is to be provided by network designers by combining SNMP and OAM protocols as the required OAM capability cannot be acquired only by the SNMP protocol.That is why OAM protocols for the EPON system have been standardized in 802.3ah.In this paper
the EPON system management mechanism
which combines SNMP and 802.3ah OAM protocol is discussed and the functions and features of EPON OAM and its software implementation in Linux described.
