In this paper new modules have been written to cover all the configuration, functionality, interoperability and integration. Many tools & technology were used to understand the Functional specification of IPTV in detail and understand the work flow to plan and write the module. The developed module will be integrated into the existing OLCS and will be made live so that every user throughout the globe can access it with ease.
