CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW
The CMD-N transponder provides the ability to manage fiber nodes and optical hubs through an existing
cable modem infrastructure. Please see your Cheetah Technologies representative for a complete listing
of supported fiber nodes.
The transponder transmits data to a management system over the network’s existing DOCSIS
infrastructure, using standard SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). Status monitoring
information is compatible with ANSI/SCTE HMS standards.

Figure 1. The CMD-N Transponder

The CMD-N transponder:


• Uses ANSI/SCTE HMS standards
• Measures analog or receives digital SCTE/HMS data from fiber nodes
• Can be network managed through your existing CMTS.
To the cable network infrastructure, the CMD-N transponder appears as a DOCSIS 2.0 cable modem. The
transponder is assigned an IP address like any other DOCSIS device on the DOCSIS network. The
assigned IP address is used to access the HMS status monitoring data via SNMP and the HMS MIBs.
For complete DOCSIS specifications, see Cable Laboratories specifications (Cable Labs Public DOCSIS
SPECS) at www.cablelabs.com.

CMD-N Cisco GS7000 Transponder User Manual

CHAPTER 2: CONNECTIONS
2.1 OVERVIEW
The CMD-N transponder includes six status LEDs, the Craft* port (which is a standard RJ-45 Ethernet
connector), an optical tamper sensor, and a node interface connector. The transponder receives its
power and performs communications all via the node interface connector. The transponder also has a
pad socket to attenuate the upstream signal from the transponder. This is so the transponder can be
configured for different implementations. If the transponder is to be used in a GS7000 node then the 10
pad must be used. If the transponder is to be used in a GS7000 Optical Hub then the 0 pad must be
used. The locations of these items are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.
* The Craft port provides local access to the transponder. However, it is important to note that the Craft
port is a fully functional standard Ethernet port capable of providing all the functionality of any standard
Ethernet connection.

CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
Cable modem infrastructures are likely to have unique characteristics; therefore, Cheetah Technologies
strongly recommends completely installing one transponder and making it operational before deploying
the entire system throughout your network.
Installing the transponders and making them operational consists of the following steps, which are
explained in detail in this chapter.
• Provisioning the transponders in the network
• Adding configuration data to the cable modem configuration file
• Installing the transponder
• Powering the transponder and checking the LEDs for status.

3.1 PROVISIONING THE TRANSPONDERS IN THE NETWORK


Before installing CMD-N transponders, the transponder must be provisioned in the network for the
network to recognize, discover, and communicate with the transponders when they are powered up. The
following graphic shows a typical network.

NOTE: Some provisioning systems require that the transponder’s MAC address be added to the CMTS prior
to installing the transponder to achieve full functionality.

Figure 4. A Typical Network

Revision C Doc: 050-0201
 
 Page 11 of 62



CMD-N Cisco GS7000 Transponder User Manual

3.2 YOUR NETWORK INFORMATION


The following worksheet will aid you in gathering the network information you will need as you move
through the deployment process.

Table 4. Network Worksheet


Network Item Value
Cable Modem MAC address
Cable Modem IP address
TFTP Server IP address
Provisioning Server IP address
Time of Day Server IP address
DHCP Server IP address

The deployment of a Cheetah DOCSIS-based transponder is similar to provisioning a standard subscriber


cable modem and MTA with certain exceptions, owing to the transponder being a test device. For
instance, care must be used when provisioning, such that it is not invoiced in the billing system or
mistakenly blocked. Cable operators will want to adapt the deployment strategy to fit their unique
operational landscape. The introduction of a new device type in the DOCSIS network touches several OSS
systems and disciplines whose participation is necessary for a successful and timely deployment.

3.3 SECURITY
Different security methods are used to ensure network integrity. Some common issues are:
• A subscriber account (where the transponder is the subscriber) may be required for each
transponder
• The transponder’s MAC address may have to be pre-loaded into the CMTS
• MAC filtering may have to be modified to allow MAC addresses starting with 00:10:3F:xx:xx:xx to
be registered and 00:26:97:xx:xx:xx to be registered
• For SNMP access, UDP ports 161 and 162 must not be blocked
• Firewalls must allow communication between the cable modem and the various servers.

3.4 CABLE MODEM CONFIGURATION FILE


Cheetah Technologies strongly recommends you ensure that the cable modem configuration file has been
successfully modified and tested prior to deploying transponders into the system in quantity. The
transponder manages SNMP filters and trap destinations via the docsDevNmAccessTable.
To ensure the proper management of SNMP access, such as limiting access to certain SNMP managers
or allowing the transponder to send SNMP/HMS traps, the docsDevNmAccessTable must be
populated via the cable modem configuration file.
Additional OIDs may be added to further configure other options such as the transponder's HTTP port, its
username and password configuration information (please refer to CHAPTER 6: CMD-N Web Interface), or
its support for telnet server access (please refer to SECTION: 5.3 Console Access).
The following is a sample cable modem configuration file. Include only those OIDs that will provide the
desired features and functionality.

NOTE: The configuration file entries shown above starting with “docsDevNmAccess” all end with a
“.1”. The “.1” is a row index indicating row 1 in the docsDevNmAccess table. Additional rows can be
added to this table by adding additional sets of docsDevNmAccess entries with different row indexes. A
given row index may only be used once.

3.5 INSTALLING THE CMD-N TRANSPONDER


The following sections provide information for installing the CMD-N transponder in the following devices:
• GS7000 Node
• GS7000 Optical Hub.
Refer to the appropriate section for installing the CMD-N transponder into your particular hardware.

3.5.1 GS7000 NODE INSTALLATION


1. Remove the transponder from the shipping package.
2. Ensure the correct pad for the desired application is installed in the pad socket. For GS7000
Node installations, verify the use of the 10 pad in the transponder pad socket. If any other size
pad is in place (e.g., a zero (0) pad), replace it with the 10 pad as shown below.
Note: If a pad with a value less than 10 is used and the transponder is used in a GS7000 Node, there is a
risk the output power of the transponder may be too high for the node transmitter.

Figure 6. Upstream Pad Socket with Proper Pad Installed

3. Position the transponder so that the interface connector shown in Figure 7 aligns with the node's
interface connector shown in Figure 8.

5. If the downstream cable modem frequency is above 140 MHz, attach the Forward RF1 cable to
the Optical Receiver 1 -20 dB test point. Route the cable(s) appropriately within the node.
Please refer to Figure 10.

IMPORTANT: The cable must be inserted into the Optical Receiver 1 -20 dB test point to ensure correct
functionality. This is because the transponder DS RF port that is used corresponds with which
receiver is active, RCVR 1 or RCVR 2. If RCVR 1 is the active receiver then the transponder DS
RF 1 port is used. If RCVR 2 is the active receiver then the transponder DS RF 2 port is used.

3.6 CONFIGURING THE TRANSPONDER USING THE SA-HMS-FIBERNODEGS7000-MIB


Before the transponder can monitor the node it will need to be setup for how the node is configured. This
can be accomplished by using either the SA-HMS-FIBERNODEGS7000-MIB or through the GS7000
Configuration Data page for the GS7000 node, but can only be accomplished through the GS7000
Configuration Data page for the GS7000 optical hub. This section describes how to configure the
transponder using the SA-HMS-FIBERNODEGS7000-MIB.
For information on how to configure the transponder by using the GS7000 Configuration Data page see
the section entitled, “GS7000 Configuration Data Page”.
The OIDs used to configure the node are listed in the following table:

Table 5. SA-HMS-FIBERNODEGS7000-MIB
Component Description

Sets the forward configuration of the node.


• oneX/twoXFwdSeg(1) - Forward RF signal for all ports
comes from one or two optical receivers.
• fourXFwdSeg(2) - Forward RF signal for each port comes
from separate optical receivers.
saFnForwardConfig • threeXRx1-2-4FwdSeg(3) - Forward RF signal for each
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.5) port comes from one of three separate optical receivers.
The three receivers are Rx1, 2 and 4; Rx3 is not powered
on.
• threeXRx1-3-4FwdSeg(4) - Forward RF signal for each
port comes from one of three separate optical receivers.
The three receivers are Rx1, 3 and 4; Rx2 is not powered
on.
saFnPowerSupplySlot Configures the power supply slots to indicate whether a power
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.9.1.2) supply is installed or not installed. Set the installed power
supplies to Mount and the power supply, if any, that is not
installed to Unmount.
saFnRestoreTime Sets the time in seconds the A/B switch setting will be restored
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.8) after power has been restored to the primary receiver.
The default is 9 and the range is 0-255.
saFnOpticalReceiverSlot Configures the receiver slots to indicate if a receiver is installed
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.2) or not installed. Set the active slots to Mount and the slots, if
any, that do not have an installed receiver to Unmount.
saFnOpticalReceiverLoPwrLimit Sets the minimum threshold level for the input signal to the A/B
switch in mW. The default is 0.50 and the range is 0.25-2.40.
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.4)
Note: When the saFnOpticalReceiverLoPwrLimit
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.4) is set, the LOLO alarm
limit for the fnOpticalReceiverPower (OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.5.5.1.2) is also set.
In the same respect, when the LOLO alarm limit is set for
the fnOpticalReceiverPower (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.5.5.1.2),
the saFnOpticalReceiverLoPwrLimit (OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.4) is also set.
Because the accuracy of the
saFnOpticalReceiverLoPwrLimit is in hundredths and the
accuracy of the fnOpticalReceiverPower is in tenths, when
the value is set for the saFnOpticalReceiverLoPwrLimit,
the LOLO alarm limit for the fnOpticalReceiverPower will
be rounded to the nearest tenth.

saFnOpticalReceiverHiPwrLimit Sets the maximum threshold level for input signal to the A/B
switch in mW.
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.3)
The default is 2.00 and the range is 0.25-2.40.
Note: This parameter is not implemented within the
transponder in versions less than 4.1.0.
When the saFnOpticalReceiverHiPwrLimit
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.3) is set, the HIHI alarm
limit for the fnOpticalReceiverPower (OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.5.5.1.2) is also set.
In the same respect, when the HIHI alarm limit is set for
the fnOpticalReceiverPower (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.5.5.1.2),
the saFnOpticalReceiverHiPwrLimit (OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.4.1.3) is also set.
Although the saFnOpticalReceiverHiPwrLimit displayed
accuracy is to the hundredth, the actual accuracy is only
to the tenth.

The accuracy of the fnOpticalReceiverPower is in tenth, so


when the value is set for the
saFnOpticalReceiverHiPwrLimit, the HIHI alarm limit for
the fnOpticalReceiverPower will be truncated to display
tenths.
saFnReturnLaserSlot Configures the transmitter slots to indicate if a transmitter is
(OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.1.6.5.2.2.1.2) installed or not installed. Set the active slots to Mount and the
slots, if any, that do not have an installed transmitter to
Unmount.

3.7 MODULE FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD USING THE CTLP-DOWNLOAD-MIB


With firmware version 4.1.0 and greater, the CMD-N transponder for the GS700 has the ability to
download firmware to Optical Amps and Optical Switches by using the CTLP-Download MIB (OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1).
Note: While downloading firmware to the Optical Amps and Optical Switches there will be no communications
between the transponder and any Optical Amps or Optical Switches in the Hub or Node during the entire
firmware download process, although they will continue to function correctly. The transponder will still
be able to monitor the Optical Transmitters and Receivers.
A firmware download to the modules can be accomplished in one of two ways, management style
download or provisioning style download.
To start a management initiated download, set the downloadModuleType, downloadServer, and
downloadFilename to the correct values. Then set the downloadAdminStatus to either startDownload(1)
or forceDownload(2).
To setup a provisioning style download so the transponder will use the module download information
supplied by the provisioning server during boot up or reboot, In the CM config file set the
downloadModuleType to 2, downloadServer, and downloadFilename to the correct values, and the
downloadAdminStatus to startDownload(1).
Note: If the provisioning style of download is desired it is strongly recommended to set the
downloadAdminStatus to startDownload(1) in the CM config file. If the downloadAdminStatus is set to
forceDownload(2) in the CM config file then upon every reboot the transponder will download the
firmware to all modules even if they are at the current version.
The following OIDs are used for the Module Download Feature:
• downloadServer (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1.1.1) – The IP address of the TFTP server where the
module firmware file is located. If the TFTP server is unknown and the OID is read, the returned
value will be 0.0.0.0.
• downloadModuleType (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1.1.2) – The type of download to be executed.
Must be set to other(2). Type cm(1) is used for other integrations and is not applicable in this
instance.
• downloadFilename (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1.1.3) – The file name of the software image to be
loaded into the device.. If the file is unknown and the OID is read, the returned value will be
(unknown).
• downloadAdminStatus (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1.1.4) – Begins the download to the
module(s).
o startDownload(1) – Begins the download to the modules with version checking enabled.
If a module is running the same version of firmware that is being downloaded, it will not
receive the firmware download. While in the process of downloading in this fashion the
downloadAdminStatus will report startDownload if read.
o forceDownload(2) – Begins the download to the modules regardless of the current
version of firmware running or any other factors that may cause a download not to be
performed. While in the process of downloading in this fashion the
downloadAdminStatus will report forceDownload if read.
o allowProvisioning(3) – Not supported in this application. Although this is not supported
for application and does not affect anything if set. It is also the default state of
downloadAdminStatus.
o ignoreProvisioning(4) – When set, firmware upgrade information will be disregarded.
After a download is completed the downloadAdminStatus will report ignoreProvisioning.
• downloadOperStatus (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2082.5.10.1.1.5) – Reflects the operational status of
the firmware download. The following are the possible states.
o Downloading(1) – Downloading the file to the transponder.
o Programming(2) – Programming of the module in progress.

4.2 ACQUIRING THE TRANSPONDERS BY THE SNMP MANAGER

The transponder must first complete its initialization/registration from the Cable Modem configuration
file. The transponder will then send a warm start trap to the SNMP Manager (as specified in the cable
modem configuration file). This trap provides the SNMP Manager with the MAC and IP addresses of the
transponder and should, depending on the configuration of the manager software, initiate monitoring the
fiber node.

NOTE 2: The transponder output is limited to a maximum of 40dBmV at the transponder RF connector so as to not exceed
the manufacturer's specifications. This is accomplished through a 15 dB pad in the Upstream RF path within the
transponder. It is possible for the transmit power reading on the web page to exceed 40dBmV by a significant
margin if the transponder cannot reach the CMTS requested transmit level. This high reading on the web page has
no adverse impact on operation of either the transponder or the node. As the CMTS requests the transponder to
transmit at a level beyond its capacity, the web page display can show a slowly increasing power level up to the
maximum DOCSIS level for that particular transmit mode and modulation type. Even though the level reading on
the web page is high, the transponder output is still limited to 40dBmV. This condition can occur where the
Upstream attenuation between the node and CMTS is significant. Under normal conditions, the web page display
and actual RF output level are the same.

The Ping Test is controlled by the following buttons.
Table 18. Control Buttons on the Ping Screen
Button Description
Start Test Starts the ping test. Each of the values provided in the input fields is evaluated for validity.
• If the host name field is blank, the test will not proceed. (The exception is leaving it blank when a
previous name had been entered. In that case, that name will be used.)
• Range checking on the parameters. Any parameter out of range will be ignored, and the default
value used.
Any issues with the parameters will be displayed at the top of the results box.
When the test is started, the web page will begin to automatically refresh. Also, a message will be
displayed:
Ping in use from <source>; pkings xxx; size yyy; timeout zzz seconds
indicating the parameters actually in use. This message is also in the text box.
Abort Test Stops any ping test currently in progress.
Clear Results Clears the results window.

6.8.3 TEST RESULTS

Below the test control buttons is a text area that displays the results of the ping test. Any issues with the
parameters will be displayed at the top of the results box. During a test, the web page will automatically
refresh to show the current results. This refresh stops once the test is completed.
The results area permits the user to select results and copy them for pasting into another program. This
is accessed by standard web browser methods: either left-clicking in the box and pressing CTRL-A (select
all), or right-clicking in the box and clicking “Select all”, OR by simply using the mouse cursor, and
selecting those lines of interest. Copy is done via standard commands used on the system in question
(e.g., under Windows, use CTRL-C to copy.) Figure 23 shows a typical set of Ping results.
