your MikroTik gets an IP in the same network (192.168.88.1), and they can ping each other.
Then MyOLT reaches the OLT through your MikroTik.Type your own addresses once — every command on these pages changes to them, ready to copy. Stays in this browser only.
The OLT uplink is cabled to a MikroTik port (here ether5). Management goes in VLAN 100.

Your OLT uplink goes to a switch instead? Carry VLAN 100 tagged from the OLT to the MikroTik through it.
