What is a Generic OLT?
AdminOLT natively supports several OLT brands (Huawei, ZTE, VSOL, C-Data, TP-Link, among others), with the connection logic and commands already built in. If your OLT is a brand or model that is not on that list, you can use the Generic type (also called Custom).

How does a Generic OLT work?
Instead of AdminOLT already knowing which commands to send to your device (as it does for native brands), you (or your technical team) define the exact commands your OLT needs for each action, using two tools:
- Scripts: sequences of commands sent to the OLT to execute an action (e.g. authorizing an ONU, creating a speed plan).
- Queries: commands (Telnet or SNMP) that fetch information from the OLT and interpret it to display it in the system (e.g. listing VLANs, viewing an ONU's status).
What do I need to configure it?
- Know the exact CLI (Telnet) commands of your OLT for each action you want to automate.
- Know the SNMP OIDs of your device, if you're going to read information via SNMP.
- Basic knowledge of regular expressions (TextFSM) and Python, to interpret the OLT's responses.

Important
If you don't have the technical knowledge required (CLI commands, OIDs, regex, Python), we recommend contacting support before continuing.
