Ms-olt
Project explanation
Ms-olt (internally known as 'Facutuls') is a critical microservice built for Red Uno, the main ISP in Puerto Madryn. The project was created to solve a major gap: the commercial management software covered business workflows but lacked technical capabilities for optical fiber infrastructure management. The system establishes secure SSH connections to OLTs (Optical Line Terminals) to gather detailed ONU information and execute management commands, filling an operational void that affected customer service across the city. Built as a solo project, it pushed me outside my comfort zone by learning SSH connections, fiber network concepts, and automation from scratch.
Critical microservice for the technical management of optical fiber infrastructure at an ISP.
Technical Stack
Main Features
