Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and an optical communication device implemented in an optical network and a computer-readable storage medium. In the method described herein, a distribution point unit (DPU) of the optical network receives a message comprising an identification of a target backhaul model from an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) in the optical network. The received message is parsed to obtain the identification of the target backhaul model. The target backhaul model indicated by the identification is used to communicate with the OLT. In this way, the DPU is compatible with many types of backhaul models and is capable of flexibly switching between the many types of backhaul models.
