Abstract
A device may include a communication interface to communicate with an optical line terminal and a processor. The processor may set an optical path from the optical line terminal to an optical network terminal, the optical path including one or more optical network elements. In addition, the processor may obtain, from the optical line terminal, a status reading of the optical network terminal when the optical path is set. Further, the processor may obtain, from the optical line terminal, a power reading at the optical network terminal when the optical path is set. The processor may record the status reading and the power reading.
