Thanks

Hi, I’m asking on behalf of a colleague with over 12 years of experience in fibre optic installation, splicing and network repairs. Which companies would be worth contacting?

I've been trying for days to get IPv6 up on Vsol fibre units and starting to believe that it is not in fact correctly implemented.

I note other posts here suggesting to avoid VSOL. granted.. probably good advice, but look, not my decision, OK. and it is what it is.

IPv4 config works fine, both "routed" and "bridged" are possible.

I have tried to configure a WAN IPV6 profile manually on the ONU or remotely on the OLT, either directly or via a Service Profile. Nothing works. There is a RouterOS box behind the OLT and this is providing upstream IPv6 perfectly fine to the non fibre network segment.

Anyway, even adding a static IPv6 address to the OLT, the ONU can't communicate with it.

Network traces from the OLT uplink are well, showing weird stuff going on. I guess this is not the place to post such things though, The VSOL website is BS and any specific documentation is all but non existent.

so this is just a shout out.. Anybody else actually get this junk to work?

OT6000 Online Fiber Monitoring OTDR is designed to help network operators monitor fiber-optic links, identify abnormal events and improve the efficiency of network maintenance.

For telecom operators, data centers, backbone networks and critical fiber infrastructure, continuous monitoring can help teams respond to potential fiber faults before they cause extended service interruptions.

In this video, we demonstrate how OT6000 can be used for:

Online monitoring of fiber-optic links

Fiber fault detection and event localization

Abnormal loss and reflection analysis

Remote network maintenance

Backbone and access network protection

Data center and critical infrastructure monitoring

Faster troubleshooting and maintenance response

With centralized monitoring and automated alarm management, OT6000 helps maintenance teams gain better visibility into the condition of fiber networks.

For detailed system configuration, monitoring distance, alarm functions and application requirements, please contact our technical team.

First asmr video btw. Idk about my facts, prolly not accurate, but 🤷🏽‍♂️
