+# Short-Description: Sets up inband management channel and starts device management and Openolt services
+# Description:
+#                    This script does the following things
+#                    1) Extracts bal package and keep the files in appropriate paths.
+#                    2) Starts svk_init which installs required drivers needed by the MAC devices
+#                    3) Starts device management daemon which initializes all maple, qumran chip sets
+#                       and brings up access terminal.
+#                    4) Sets up inband management channel
+#                    5) Creates inband vlan tagged interface which will be used to communicate to
+#                       Openolt service from vOLTHA via NNI
+#                    6) Sets up dhcp-client-identifier in "/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf" for each inband
+#                       tagged interface so that it can obtain IP address from DHCP server
+#                    7) Sets up DHCP IP configuration in "/etc/network/interfaces" for inband tagged
+#                       interface so that it can initiate DHCPREQUEST to DHCP server once network
+#                       restart triggered.
+#                    8) Starts openolt service which enables all PON and NNI interfaces and creates
+#                       respective PON and NNI schedulers and Queues.
