General information

Introduction

GPON is a network of Passive Optical Networks (PON) type. It is one of the most effective state-of-the-art 'last mile' solutions that significantly reduces the required amount of cable and provides data transfer with downstream rate up to 2.5 Gbps and upstream rate up to 1.25 Gbps. Use of GPON-based solutions in access networks allows end users to have access to new services based on IP protocol in addition to more common ones.

The key GPON advantage is the use of one Optical Line Terminal (OLT) for multiple Optical Network Terminals (ONT). OLT converts Gigabit Ethernet and GPON interfaces and is used to connect a PON network with data communication networks of a higher level.

The range of OLT GPON equipment produced by ELTEX presents LTP-16N and LTP-16NT terminals of 16 GPON ports with internal Ethernet switch with RSSI function.

This user manual describes purpose, main technical specifications, installation order, rules of configuration, monitoring, and software update for the devices.

Purpose

The LTP-16N(T) optical line terminal is designed to establish connection with upstream equipment and provide broadband access via passive optical networks. Ethernet connection is established through Gigabit uplink and 10GBASE-X interfaces, and GPON interfaces are used to connect to optical networks. Each PON interface allows connection of up to 128 subscriber optical terminals through one fiber and supports Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA).

The following services are provided to end users:

Compatible SFP transceivers

Correct and error-free operation of GPON interface requires exact parameters to be chosen and set for each transceiver type. This can be done only under laboratory conditions by the terminal vendor. Table 2 lists SFP transceivers for which seamless terminal operation is guaranteed.

DDMI (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring Interface) provides information on transceiver parameters, such as temperature, power voltage, etc. DDMI also measures the level of ONT signal (RSSI). All compatible transceivers support this function.

Ventilation system

There are ventilation openings on the device rear, front and side panels that serve to remove heat. There are two ventilation units on the rear panel (Figure 3).

Air flows in through the perforated front and side panels, circulates through all internal components, cools them down, and then is removed by fans located on the perforated rear panel.

The device contains two blocks of two fans each. The ventilation units are detachable. The procedure for dismantlement and installation is described in Ventilation units replacement

Safety rules and installation procedure

This section describes safety measures and installation of the terminal into a rack and connection to a power supply.

Safety requirements

General requirements
Any operation with the equipment should comply with the Rules for the technical operation of consumer electrical installations.

Operations with the terminal should be carried out only by personnel authorized in accordance with the safety requirements.

  1. Before operating the device, all engineers should undergo special training.
  2. Connect only serviceable and compatible accessories to the terminal.
    To avoid overheating and provide necessary ventilation of the terminal, sufficient space should be provided above and below the terminal.
  3. The device is meant for 24/7 operation if the following requirements are met:
  4. The terminal should not be exposed to mechanical shock, vibration, smoke, dust, water, and chemicals.
  5. To avoid components overheating which may result in device malfunction, do not block air vents or place objects on the equipment.

Electrical safety requirements

  1. Prior to connecting the device to a power source, ensure that the equipment case is grounded with an earth bonding point. The earthing wire should be securely connected to the earth bonding point. The resistance between the earth bonding point and earthing busbar should be less than 0.1 Ω. PC and measurement instruments should be grounded prior to connection to the terminal. The potential difference between the equipment case and the cases of the instruments should be less than 1V.
  2. Prior to turning the device on, ensure that all cables are undamaged and securely connected.
  3. Make sure the device is off, when installing or removing the case.
  4. Follow the instructions given in SFP transceivers replacement to install or remove SFP transceivers. This operation does not require the terminal to be turned off. 

Terminal installation

Check the device for visible mechanical damage before installing and turning it on. In case of any damage, stop the installation, fill in a corresponding document and contact your supplier. If the terminal has been at low temperatures for a long time before installation, leave it for 2 hours at ambient temperature prior to operation. If the device has been at high humidity for a long time, leave it for at least 12 hours in normal conditions prior to turning it on.

Support brackets mounting
The delivery package includes support brackets for rack installation and mounting screws to fix the terminal case on the brackets. To install the support brackets:

Figure 5 – Support brackets mounting

Terminal rack installation
To install the terminal to the rack:

Figure 6 – Device rack installation

The terminal is horizontally ventilated. The side panels have air vents. Do not block the air vents to avoid components overheating and subsequent terminal malfunction.

To avoid overheating and provide necessary ventilation of the terminal, sufficient space should be provided above and below the terminal, no less than 10 cm.

Power module installation

Depending on power supply requirements, terminals can be supplemented with either 220V, 50 Hz AC power module or 48 V DC power supply module. Location of the power module is shown in Figure 7.


Figure 7 – Power module installation

Terminals can operate with one or two power modules. The second power module installation is necessary when greater reliability is required. In case of using two power supply modules, it is allowed to use different power modules for supplying (with different voltage).


Figure 8 – Power module installation

From the electric point of view, both places for power module installation are identical. In the terms of device operation, the power supply module located closer to the edge is considered as the main module, and the one closer to the centre — as the backup module. Power modules can be inserted and removed without powering the device off. When an additional power module is inserted or removed, the device continues to operate without reboot.

To install a power module:

The device installation order

Getting started with the terminal

Connecting to the terminal CLI

This section describes various connection methods for Command Line Interface (CLI) of the terminal.

A serial port (hereafter – COM port) is recommended for preliminary adjustment of the terminal.

Connecting to CLI via COM port

This type of connection requires PC either to have an integrated COM port or to be supplied with an USB-COM adapter cable. The PC should also have a terminal program installed, e. g. Hyperterminal.

Figure 9 – Connecting the terminal to a PC via COM port

Connecting to CLI via Telnet protocol

The Telnet protocol connection is more flexible than the connection via COM port. Connection to CLI can be established directly at the terminal location or via an IP network with the help of a remote desktop.

This section considers direct connection to CLI at the terminal location. Remote connection is similar, but requires changes in the terminal IP address that will be considered in detail in the Network Settings section.

In order to be connected to the terminal, a PC should have a Network Interface Card (NIC). The connection will additionally require the sufficient amount of network cable (Patching Cord RJ45) as it is not included in the delivery package.

 

Figure 10 – Connecting the terminal to a PC via network cable

Figure 11 – Network connection configuration

Figure 12 – Client startup

Connecting to CLI via Secure Shell protocol

Secure Shell connection (SSH) has functionality similar to the Telnet protocol. However, as opposed to Telnet, Secure Shell encrypts all traffic data, including passwords. This enables secure remote connection via public IP networks.

This section considers direct connection to CLI at the terminal location. Remote connection is similar, but requires changes in the terminal IP address that will be considered in detail in the Network settings section.

In order to connect to the terminal, a PC should have a Network Interface Card (NIC). The PC should have an SSH client installed, e.g. PuTTY. The connection will additionally require the sufficient amount of network cable (Patch Cord RJ-45) as it is not included in the delivery package.

Getting started with terminal CLI

CLI is the main means of communication between user and the terminal. This section describes general CLI procedures: information on grouping, autocomplete options, and command history is given.

CLI views hierarchy

The command system of the LTP-16N Command Line Interface is divided into views. The transition between views is performed by commands. The exit command is used to return to the previous level. Some views are an array where a unique index must be used to access a specific object.

Figure 13 shows a graphic chart of main views and the commands to switch between them.

  
Figure 13 – CLI views hierarchy

CLI hotkeys

In order to speed up the operations with the command line, the following hotkeys have been added:

Table 9 – Command line hotkeys

Hotkey

Result

Ctrl+A

Transition to the beginning of line

Ctrl+D

In a nested command mode – exit to the previous command mode (exit command), in a root command mode – exit from CLI

Ctrl+E

Transition to the end of line

Ctrl+L

Screen clearing

Ctrl+U

Removal of characters to the left of a cursor

Ctrl+W

Removal of a word to the left of a cursor

Ctrl+K

Removal of characters to the right of a cursor

Ctrl+C

Line clearing, command execution interruption

CLI automatic code completion

To simplify the use of the command line, the interface supports automatic command completion. This function is activated when the command is incomplete and the <Tab> character is entered.

For example, enter the ex command in the Top view and press <Tab>:

LTP-16N# ex<Tab> 
LTP-16N# exit

As this mode has only one command with the ex prefix, CLI automatically completes it.

If there are several commands with this prefix, CLI shows hints with possible options:

LTP-16N# co<Tab> 
commit configure copy 
LTP-16N# con<Tab> 
LTP-16N# configure

Group operations

Group operations can be performed on such terminal configuration objects as interfaces and ONTs. It is especially convenient when same actions have to be applied to multiple objects.

To perform a group operation, select the range of object IDs instead of one object ID. This feature is supported by a majority of CLI commands.

For example, enable broadcast-filter for all ONTs in a certain channel.

LTP-16N# configure
LTP-16N(configure)# interface ont 1/1-128
LTP-16N(config)(if-ont-1/1-128)# broadcast-filter 
LTP-16N(config)(if-ont-1/1-128)# 

View the list of active ones in the first 3 PON ports:

LTP-16N# show interface ont 1-3 online 
GPON-port 1 has no online ONTs
GPON-port 2 has no online ONTs
GPON-port 3 has no online ONTs
Total ONT count: 0

Configuring the terminal

Terminal configuration

A collection of all terminal settings is referred to as configuration. This section provides information on the parts which configuration consists of. It also defines lifecycle of configuration and describes main operations, which can be performed.

Configuration lifecycle

The terminal configuration may have the following states:

The Running configuration is loaded to a new CLI session and becomes available for editing (Candidate). A different copy of the Candidate configuration is used for each session. After a configuration (Candidate) change in a CLI session, the user can issue a command to apply the changed configuration (the commit command). The save command saves the Running configuration into NVRAM of the terminal.
Figure 14 shows a chart of configuration lifecycle.


Figure 14 – Configuration lifecycle of the terminal chart 

Configuration backup

Configuration backups allow the terminal operation to be quickly restored after abnormal situations or replacement. Regular manual backups of the configuration are recommended.

Uploading the terminal configuration is possible to a TFTP/FTP/HTTP server available in the management network. Uploading is carried out by the copy command. Specify as arguments that the fs://config terminal configuration is uploaded, as well as the destination URL.

LTP-16N# copy fs://config tftp://192.168.1.1/config 
Upload backup file to TFTP-server..

Configuration restore

The terminal configuration is restored from a TFTP/FTP/HTTP server available in the management network. Restoring is carried out by the copy command. Specify as arguments that the fs://config terminal configuration is uploaded, as well as the destination URL.

LTP-16N# copy tftp://10.0.105.1/config fs://config 
	Download file from TFTP-server.. 
	Reading of the configuration file.. 
	Configuration have been successfully restored (all not saved changes was lost)

Configuration reset

To reset a terminal configuration to factory settings, use the default command. After running the command, the default configuration is applied as a Candidate and must be applied using the commit command.

LTP-16N# default 
    Do you really want to do it? (y/N)  y
    Configuration has been reset to default
LTP-16N# commit 



Resetting a configuration of a remote terminal also resets network settings. The terminal will not be available for operation until the network settings are reconfigured.

Network settings

This section describes adjustment of network settings for the terminal. Adjusting network settings enables remote control and integration with OSS/BSS systems.

Network parameters configuration

It is recommended to adjust network settings via COM port connection. This will prevent issues with connection loss upstream the terminal being adjusted. Be very careful when using remote adjustment.

User management

This section describes the management of the terminal users.

The factory settings provide only one user, i.e. the device administrator.

login: admin
password: password


It is recommended to change the default password of the admin user at the initial stage of configuration.

For security reasons, there is a strictly defined set of permissions, which can be delegated to terminal users. For these purposes, each user gets his own privilege level. Level 0 corresponds to a minimum set of permissions, Level 15 — to a maximum set of permissions. Levels 1 to 14 are fully configurable. For ease of use, these levels are filled with default privileges.

The CLI commands are divided into access levels according to the block they change or let you view. Commands without access level (exit, !) are available to all users. Level 15 commands are available only to Level 15 users. Thus, the level of commands available to a user does not exceed the user's level. 

Privilege configuration

User list preview

To view the list of terminal users, enter the show running-config user all command.

LTP-16N# show running-config user all

 user admin privilege 15

The admin and root users always exist and cannot be deleted or duplicated. The terminal supports up to 16 users.

Adding a new user

In order to operate effectively and safely, the terminal, as a rule, requires one or several additional users. To add a new user, enter the user command in the configure view.

LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(configure)# user operator
    User operator successfully created

Pass the name of the new user as a parameter to the user command. The name should not be longer than 32 characters. The name should not contain special characters.

Changing user password

To change user password, enter the user command. Pass the user name and a new password as parameters. Default password is password. In the configuration, the password is stored in encrypted form.

LTP-16N(configure)# user operator password newpassword
    User operator successfully changed password
LTP-16N(configure)# 

The password should not be longer than 31 characters and shorter than 8 characters. If the password contains a space, use quotations for the password.

Viewing and changing user access rights

To manage user access rights, a user priority system is implemented. A newly created user is granted with a minimal set of permissions.

LTP-16N(configure)# do show running-config user 
 user operator encrypted_password $6$mIwyhgRA$jaxkx6dATExGeT82pzqJME/eEbZI6c9rKWJoXfxLmWXx7mQYiRY0pRNdCupFsg/1gqPfWmqgc1yuR8J1g.IH20
 user operator privilege 0

To change the user priority level, enter the user command. Pass the user name and a new priority as parameters.

LTP-16N(configure)# user operator privilege 15
    User operator successfully changed privilege
LTP-16N(configure)# do show running-config user 
 user operator encrypted_password $6$mIwyhgRA$jaxkx6dATExGeT82pzqJME/eEbZI6c9rKWJoXfxLmWXx7mQYiRY0pRNdCupFsg/1gqPfWmqgc1yuR8J1g.IH20
 user operator privilege 15

Deleting a user

To delete a user, enter the no user command in the configure view. Pass the user name as a parameter.

LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(configure)# no user operator
    User operator successfully deleted

Services configuration

This section describes configuration of integrated terminal services.

SNMPD configuration

For the terminal to work via SNMP, the appropriate service should be enabled.

Configure users to operate with SNMPv3.

NTP configuration

For terminal to operate via NTP, it is necessary to configure the corresponding service. 

Daylight saving time configuration

The ip ntp daylightsaving start and ip ntp daylightsaving end settings of daylight saving time start and end cannot be applied separately. These settings only work in conjunction.


The difference between ip ntp daylightsaving start and ip ntp daylightsaving end daylight saving time start and end should not be less than an hour.

LOGD configuration

System log collects terminal history data and allows its further display. Adjustment of system log operates with such terms as module, filter level, and output device.


Figure 15 – Terminal system log

Messages of the system log are grouped into modules according to their functions. Configuration of the following modules is possible:

File

file

Logging into a file allows system messages to be written directly to the file, which can be sent to support specialists for further analysis.

The log is saved in non-volatile memory by default. The system has 3 log rotated files of 1M each. 

 

Module configuration

Consider the configuration using the dna module and the ont sub-module, which is responsible for displaying logs for the ONT. Other modules have similar configuration process.

Configuring the log storage

Use the following command to record logs to non-volatile memory:

LTP-16N(config)(logging)# permanent 

If you enter "no" before the command, the logs will be recorded to RAM. In this case, the logs will be erased after reboot. 

System log configuration

ALARMD configuration

ALARMD is a terminal alarms manager. Alarms manager enables troubleshooting and provides information about important events related to terminal operation.

For supported protocols, server configuration principles are common. For each server, the following can be configured:

Up to 3 servers can be specified for RADIUS. They will be accessed according to the specified priority. If the priority is not specified, then the first priority, which is the highest, will be used by default.

VLAN configuration 

This section describes VLAN configuration.

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices, which communicate on the channel level and are combined into a virtual network, connected to one or more network devices (GPON terminals or switches). VLAN is a very important tool for creating a flexible and configurable logical network topology over the physical topology of a GPON network.

DHCP configuration

This section describes the procedure for operating the terminal with the DHCP. The operation of the protocol can be divided into blocks:

DHCP snooping 

This functionality is used to intercept and process traffic on the terminal CPU.

Currently, this functionality must be enabled if you want to control and monitor DHCP sessions and to operate with option 82 in DHCP packets. 

DHCP snooping enabling 

DHCP option 82

DHCP option 82 is used to provide a DHCP server with additional information about a received DHCP request. This may include information about the terminal running DHCP option 82 as well as information about the ONT which sent the DHCP request. DHCP packets are modified by interception and further processing in the terminal CPU, i.e. DHCP snooping must be enabled.

The DHCP server analyses DHCP option 82 and identifies the ONT. Terminal allows the option to be both transparently transmitted from the ONT and formed/rewritten according to a specified format. DHCP option 82 is especially useful for networks, which have no private VLANs dedicated for each user.

DHCP option 82 supports configurable formats for both Circuit ID and Remote ID. The format of the suboptions is configured with the help of the tokens listed in Table 16. The placeholders will be replaced with corresponding values, while the rest of the words will be passed as is.

DHCP option 82 management

The DHCP option 82 is configured via the profile system – profile dhcp-opt82. The system allows creating several different profiles and assigning them not only globally to all DHCP packets in general, but also separating profiles by VLAN. 

DHCP option 82 profile configuration

DHCP relay

The DHCP relay functionality is a relay of DHCP packets from a client network through a routed network to a DHCP server.
DHCP-Relay works only through the management VLAN. The DHCP server is in one OLT-managed VLAN, and the subscriber traffic is in another. With this scheme of operation, DHCP broadcast requests from the client VLAN are transferred to the management VLAN and sent as unicast.

PPPoE configuration

This section describes the terminal operating procedure with the PPPoE. The operation of the protocol can be divided into two blocks:

PPPoE snooping

This functionality is used to intercept and process traffic on the terminal CPU.

Currently, this functionality must be enabled if you want to control and monitor PPPoE sessions and to operate with option 82 in packets.

PPPoE intermediate agent

PPPoE Intermediate Agent is used to provide BRAS with additional information about a received PADI request. This may include information about the terminal running PPPoE Intermediate Agent as well as information about the ONT, which sent the PADI request. PADI packets are modified by interception and further processing in the terminal CPU.

BRAS analyses the Vendor Specific tag and identifies the ONT. PPPoE Intermediate Agent forms or rewrites the Vendor Specific tag using a specified format. Vendor Specific tags are especially useful for networks, which have no private VLANs dedicated for each user. PPPoE Intermediate Agent supports configurable formats for Circuit ID and Remote ID.

LAG configuration

This section describes configuration of uplink interfaces aggregation. Link aggregation (IEEE 802.3ad) is a technology that allows multiple physical links to be combined into one logical link (aggregation group). Aggregation group has a higher throughput and is very reliable. 

The terminal supports one mode of interface aggregation – static. All communication channels in the group are always active.

Balancing configuration

It is possible to configure parameters for traffic balancing functions in port-channel. It is possible to configure the polynomial to be used in the interface selection function with the interface port-channel load-balance polynomial command. You can also configure which of the header fields will be used in calculations. Possible options: src-mac, dst-mac, vlan, ether-type. It is allowed to use a combination of up to 3 fields.

LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(configure)# interface port-channel load-balance hash src-mac dst-mac vlan

IP source-guard configuration 

IP source-guard allows limiting an unauthorized use of IP addresses on the network by binding source IP and MAC addresses to a specific service on a specific ONT. There are two operation modes:

  1. Static –to pass any traffic from the client, explicitly set the IP and MAC addresses of the client equipment.
  2. Dynamic – obtaining an address by client equipment via DHCP protocol. Based on the exchange of client equipment with the DHCP server, a DHCP snooping table containing the MAC-IP-GEM-port correspondence as well as information about the lease time is formed on the OLT. Only those packets from the client are allowed, in which the "MAC source" and "IP source" fields match the entries in the DHCP snooping table. To ensure the operation of client equipment, the IP address of which was set statically, it is possible to create static entries in dynamic mode.

For IP source-guard operation, enable DHCP snooping on this VLAN. For more information, see the DHCP snooping section. 

The following command is used to enable a DHCP session to be re-established for a device with the same MAC address:

LTP-16N(configure)# ip source-guard one-dynamic-binding-for-mac enable

It will automatically overwrite an old session with a new one.

The following command is used to add static bindings:

LTP-16N(configure)# ip source-guard bind ip <IP> mac <MAC> interface-ont <ONT> service <NUM>

where:

Use the show command to view status, mode, and static binding information:

LTP-16N# show ip source-guard binds

By default, the dynamic mode is used – dynamic and static entries work simultaneously. If only static entries are needed, configure the following:

LTP-16N(configure)# ip source-guard mode static

Port mirroring configuration

Port mirroring allows you to duplicate the traffic on monitored ports by forwarding incoming and/or outgoing packets to the controlling port. The user has the ability to set the controlling and controlled ports and select the type of traffic (inbound and/or outbound) that will be sent to the controlling port.

QoS

QoS is currently supported only via IEEE 802.1p.

General QoS configuration

After changing the QoS settings, the terminal will be automatically reconfigured. Services may be temporarily suspended.

Service models

This section considers main terms and classification of service models.

The service model can generally be based on one of the service principles: N-to-1, 1-to-1 and multicast. The "VLAN for Service" (N-to-1) architecture means that a service VLAN (S-VLAN) is used to provide all users with a certain service. The "VLAN for Subscriber" (1-to-1) architecture implies that a client VLAN (C-VLAN) is used to provide a user with multiple services. These methods are often combined in practice and form a hybrid model, which uses S-VLAN and C-VLAN simultaneously.

1-to-1 architecture

A separate VLAN is used for each subscriber in the C-VLAN model. In this operation scheme a channel from the uplink port to the GEM port of the ONT, in a given S-VLAN is built for the subscriber. And all traffic (including broadcast), goes to this GEM-port.

N-to-1 architecture

The S-VLAN model has dedicated S-VLANs for each service. Traffic is distributed among the GEM ports of the clients, based on the MAC table. If the MAC address is not learnt, the packet is sent to the broadcast GEM-port and replicated to all subscribers.

Multicast architecture

This architecture is similar to N-to-1, except that a dedicated multicast GEM port is used.

VLAN ID replacement

The transfer of traffic from the service S-VLAN to the client C-VLAN can be done either on the OLT or on the ONT. To configure the replacement place, the vlan-replace option is used. The option is configured in the cross-connect profile, which allows configuring the label replacement scheme for each service. By default, the replacement occurs on ONT.

Operating principle

The model traffic concept is used for implementation of different service models in the terminal. The model is configured in a cross-connect profile, which allows the configuration of combined circuits within a single ONT. The detailed example is given below. 

1-to-1

Below is an example of operation of the service configured according to the 1-to-1 model.
The scheme of this service model is shown in the Figure 17.

 
Figure 17 – 1-to-1 traffic model operation scheme 

A C-VLAN is used between an ONT and service routers (BRAS, VoIP SR) that encapsulate services for one subscriber (one ONT service), such as VoIP, Internet, and IPTV. In this case, all traffic is routed to one common GEM port. 

N-to-1

Below is an example of the implementation of a service model that falls under the N-to-1 structure. This scheme is best considered using the example of two ONTs.

The scheme of this model is shown in the Figure 18.

 
Figure 18 – N-to-1 model scheme

Dedicated S-VLANs are used between the OLT and service routers (BRAS, VoIP SR) for each of the following services (here – Internet). The destination of the packet is defined by the MAC table, which explicitly stores the MAC address and GEM port correspondence. If no entry is found, the packet is sent to the broadcast GEM port and replicated to all ONTs using the service.

Multicast

The multicast scheme is similar to the N-to-1 scheme, except that a multicast GEM port is used and the MAC table is involved only in IGMP exchange. Multicast is sent directly to the multicast GEM port. This mechanism is closely related to IGMP snooping.

ONT licensing

By default, only ONT manufactured by ELTEX Enterprise LLC is allowed to work on the OLT. To enable any third-party ONTs, OLT requires a license. To purchase the license, contact ELTEX Marketing Department.

Loading a license file to OLT

A license is a text file of the following format:

{
"version":"<VER>",
"type":"all",
"count":"<count>",
"sn":"<SN>",
"mac":"<MAC>",
"sign":"<hash>"
}

Where:

There are two ways to load a license to OLT.

  1. Use the copy command:

    LTP-16N# copy tftp://<IP>/<PATH> fs://license 
    Download file from TFTP-server.. 
    License successfully installed.

    Where:

    IP – IP address of TFTP server;
    PATH – path to the license file on TFTP server.

  2. Use CLI:

    LTP-16N# license set """<license>""" 
    License saved. 
    License successfully installed.

    Where:

    <license> – full content of the license file including curly brackets.
    To view information about the license on the device, use the show command.

    LTP-16N# show license 
    Active license information:
        License valid:              yes
        Version:                    1.2
        Board SN:                   GP2B000022
        Licensed vendor:            all
        Licensed ONT count:         10
        Licensed ONT online:        3

    The license file remains after device reload, firmware update, and configuration load. If OLT is reset to factory settings, the license is also deleted.

    LTP-16N# copy tftp://<IP>/<PATH> fs://license 
    Download file from TFTP-server.. 
    License successfully installed.


    LTP-16N# copy tftp://<IP>/<PATH> fs://license 
    Download file from TFTP-server.. 
    License successfully installed.


Deleting a license file from OLT

If necessary, previously installed license can be deleted using the no license command.

LTP-16N# no license 
License file removed. 
License successfully deleted from system. 
LTP-16N# show license 
Active license information: 
	No license installed


At license upload and removal, the terminal will be automatically reconfigured. This will interrupt all ONT services.

ONT general configuration principles 

This section describes general principles of ONT configuration. It also defines configuration profiles.

ONT is configured with the help of a profile, which defines high-level expression of data communication channels. All operations related to channel creation are performed automatically. The way data communication channels are created depends on the selected service model.

ONT configuration includes assignment of configuration profiles and specification of ONT specific parameters. Configuration profiles allow general parameters to be set for all or for a range of ONTs. Profile parameters may include, for instance, DBA settings, configuration of VLAN operations in OLT and ONT, settings of Ethernet ports in ONT. Specific ONT parameters allow each separate ONT to have its own settings specified. Such settings include, for example, GPON password, subscriber's VLAN, etc.

ONT operation modes

Introduce the concept of Bridged and Routed services. For this, consider the concept of OMCI and RG management domains. In terms of management domains, an ONT is considered as a device, which operates in the OMCI domain only. The devices, which operate in both management domains (i. e. have an integrated router), are denoted as ONT/RG.

For more information on protocol operation, see TR-142 Issue 2.

Everything that refers to the OMCI domain can be applied to both ONT and ONT/RG devices. For this reason, we will further denote ONT/RG as ONT. If an ONT is configured without the RG domain (without a router), skip all steps concerning RG.

Bridged service is a service, which configuration requires the OMCI management domain only, i. e. it can be completely configured with the help of the OMCI protocol in ONT. Routed service is a service, which configuration requires both the OMCI and RG management domains.

In addition to configuration in terminal, a routed service requires the RG domain to be configured by using one of the following methods:

  1. Pre-defined configuration – subscriber is provided with an ONT having fixed configuration.
  2. Local ONT configuration using WEB interface.
  3. ONT configuration using the TR-069 protocol and auto configuration server (ACS).

ONT is connected to RG using a Virtual Ethernet interface point (VEIP), which corresponds to the TR-069 WAN interface (described in TR-098) on the RG side. VEIP is represented by a virtual port in terminal parameters. The port has the same configuration procedure as Ethernet ports in the ports profile.

General principles of configuration

Service is the key term of ONT configuration. This term completely includes a communication channel, through which data is transferred from the interfaces located on the front panel of the terminal (see section Interface configuration) to users ONT ports. There are two service profiles: cross-connect and dba. The cross-connect profile creates a GEM service port, the dba profile allocates an Alloc-ID for this ONT and associates a corresponding GEM port to the Alloc-ID.

Table 19 – ONT profiles

ONT profiles configuration

Cross-connect profile configuration

DBA profile configuration

This profile configures dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA). These parameters allow specification of any T-CONT type described in G.984.3.

Ports profile configuration

The ports profile allows to group ports in ONT. The profile also contains IGMP and multicast setting as they are separately adjusted for each port.
Up to 4 Ethernet ports can be configured.

Management profile configuration

In the management profile, it is possible to configure parameters to control a device configured in the RG domain. There are two options for transmitting the configuration for ACS settings – via OMCI; receive in other ways (for example via DHCP opt43).

Shaping profile configuration

In the shaping profile, it is possible to configure parameters for limiting the transmission rate in upstream. The restriction is possible by the type of traffic – unicast\broadcast\multicast for each service separately.

ONT configuration procedure

Figure below shows a step-by-step procedure of ONT configuration.

Figure 19 – ONT configuration procedure 

Service configuration in the ont-mode bridge mode

Consider configuring a mixed scheme of services built on different traffic-model. ONT will be configured in the bridge mode.

Configure 3 services:

  1. HSI and IPTV unicast, by traffic model N-to-1, the service VLAN is 200, the tag will be taken on the ONT, untagged traffic will come from the ONT port.
  2. Multicast, packets will come on OLT with tag 98, from the ONT port — also not tagged.
  3. On the 1-to-1 model, with a service VLAN 100, in a separate bridge group, the ONT port will come out with a tag 10. Tag replacement will take place on the OLT.

Figure 20 – Abstract representation of the test configuration

Service configuration in the ont-mode router mode

Consider a typical configuration of services for ONT configured the in router mode: HSI, IPTV, VoIP and ACS.

To do this, configure 5 services:

  1. HSI service. N-to-1 traffic model, the service VLAN is 200, there will be a tag replacement on the OLT and it will arrive to 10 on the OLT.
  2. IPTV service. Service for multicast traffic. Multicast traffic model. The stream passes without replacing the VLAN 30 tag.
  3. STB service. The service is required for unicast traffic for STBs. The tag is replaced to ONT. VLAN 250.
  4. VoIP service. Service for telephony, similar in settings to HSI. VLAN 100.
  5. ACS service. This service is used to control the ONT via ACS. Service VLAN 2000.

Configuration templates

It is not always convenient for carriers, especially large ones, to assemble ONT configuration from profiles for each subscriber. This is time-consuming and, in a certain sense, risky, since it increases the likelihood of carrier errors. As a rule, companies use one or more service plans, under which ONT profiles are defined.

This section describes ONT templates. The mechanics of configuration templates is very simple. The network administrator prepares in advance the required number of templates according to the number of service plans. The configuration template specifies a list of profiles, as well as a set of ONT parameters with maximum detail. The subscriber department engineer or the OSS/BSS system assigns the template to the ONT and redefines some additional configuration parameters, if necessary. As a rule, the assignment of a configuration through templates occurs in one click or in one command.

Assigning ONT configuration template 

Disabling ONT

Starting with 1.4.0 firmware version, the ability to remotely disable the interface ONT has been added.


LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(config)# interface ont 1/1
LTP-16N(config)(if-ont-1/1)# shutdown
LTP-16N(config)(if-ont-1/1)# do commit



ONT firmware update

This section describes the procedure of ONT firmware update via OMCI.

Uploading firmware for ONT update

ONT firmware management

Currently, only manual start and stop of ONT updates are supported.

OLT configuration

S-VLAN ethertype configuration

By default, ethertype 0x8100 is used. Ethertype for S-VLAN can be changed using the following command:

LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(configure)# pon network svlan-ethertype 0x88A8
LTP-16N(configure)# do commit

ONT block time configuration

When MAC duplication is detected (when the same MAC address is trained on two ports of the OLT), the ONT is blocked for the set timer, by default 60 seconds. The value of this timer can be configured:

LTP-16N# configure terminal
LTP-16N(configure)# pon olt ont-block-time 200
LTP-16N(configure)# do commit

Unactivated-timeout configuration

Unactivated-timeout is a timer after which the ONT will be removed from monitoring if no connection messages were received from it.
