electrical components in use for signal distribution. This architecture is mainly
used as a solution for access to the last mile, leading optical fiber cabling and
signals nearest to end user. A PON system has the ability to deliver high speed
rates for broadband access.
The first PON was based on ATM (called APON, now renamed to broadband
or BPON) and it has evolved to today’s dominants Gigabit PON (GPON) and
Ethernet PON (EPON). All of these optical technologies create split multi-site
connection paths, they are built using a similar topology, and components like
shown by Figure 7.1.

of two main parts, the OLT and one or more ONUs. In general, all operations
to provision a GPON are issued at the OLT and sent via OMCI messages to the
ONU. An ODN connects the OLT and the ONUs.
As defined in the ITU-T G.984.1 standard[3] GPON devices are capable of processing traffic up to 2.488 Gbit/s in downstream and 1.244 Gbit/s in upstream
direction.
The physical reach is the maximum physical distance between the ONU/ONT
and the OLT. In GPON, two options are defined for the physical reach: 10 km
and 20 km. It is assumed that 10 km is the maximum distance over which FP-LD
can be used. However, this ONU uses a DFB laser diode, so it is able to operate
at a maximum distance of 20 km.

7.2 Transmission Containers (T-CONTs)
A transmission container or T-CONT is a group of logical connections. For one
ONU there are multiple T-CONTs possible. The number of supported T-CONTs
depends on the ONU software. One T-CONT has a specific bandwidth allocation.
Each T-CONT is supposed to provide different services.

7.3 GPON encapsulation method port (GEM-Port)
GEM is a data frame transport scheme used in GPON systems which is connectionoriented and supports fragmentation of user data frames into variable-sized transmission fragments. One or more GEM-Ports on the other hand are a logical
gateways for specific user data flows that are assigned to a specific T-CONT. So
it is possible to differentiate between user data within the same service that is
represented by a T-CONT.

8. Physical Setup
8.1 Overview
To achieve any GPON setup described in this manual it is assumed that there is
an OLT, which configures the ONU. According to ITU-T G.984.1[3] it is intended
to have a passive fiber connection between the OLT and the ONU. It may include
optical splitters as well as other passive network components. In a typical FTTH
scenario the ONU is connected to the OLT via the ODN and the customer
may connect it to his local network. The OLT must also be connected to the
service providers’ network. The setup may vary for different scenarios. For an
introduction into GPON please refer to the chapter Introduction into GPON.
Additionally refer to the manual of the OLT vendor to be sure the ONU is
connected correctly.
8.2 IP Multiservice Access Platform (IPSAN)
In case of using the IPSAN as OLT, there is a dedicated GPON card installed
which is used to connect the ONU via the ODN to a GPON interface at the
GPON card of the IPSAN. Such a GPON interface is also called ponlink in
short which will be the convention in this document. In addition to the ONU
connections, the IPSAN needs at least one more connection, which acts as uplink
to the service providers’ network. Depending on the customers needs, it is also
possible to define more than one uplink. Each of the connections to the IPSAN
may need a specific SFP to connect the cables to the interfaces. The setup for
the scenario with FTTH described above remains the same. Note that the IPSAN
is not only an OLT and may be used for other purposes too. For a full guide to
all of the supported GPON features, as well as other functionalities please refer
to the dedicated IPSAN’s User Manual.[1]

DM984 product family CHAPTER 9. OPERATION WITH OLTS FROM OTHER VENDORS
9. Operation with OLTs from other vendors
9.1 Registration and Configuration
There are two values that are used by the OLT to identify the ONU. The ONU
has a unique serial number and a password. While the password is changeable,
the serial number is not. With these two values the ONU can be registered in 3
different ways.
It can be registered using only the serial number, only the password or the two in
combination. From now on all the work is done on the OLT’s configuration interface. Please refer to the manual of the OLT vendor to ensure proper registration
of the ONU.
9.2 Checking the Firmware version
It is possible to check the firmware version from an OLT’s user interface remotely,
as the ONU is sending its firmware information to the OLT. Please refer to the
manual of the OLT vendor on how check the firmware version with your OLT.
9.3 Upgrading the Firmware
Following the ITU-T G.988[4] the upgrade of the firmware version (also called
software download) is only performed by the OLT. Please refer to the manual of
the OLT vendor to ensure proper upgrade of the firmware.
For a smooth operation of the ONU, please check for firmware updates on a
regular basis and keep the version up to date.

DM984 product family CHAPTER 10. FIRST STEPS WITH IPSAN
10. First Steps with IPSAN
It is possible to connect to the configuration CLI (command line interface)
through serial cables, telnet and SSH. Initially the IPSAN is accessible via the
serial interface only. For security reasons it is recommended to use SSH for any
configuration. The necessary steps to configure SSH are defined in the section
10.1 Initial Connection
The first connection is possible only through the serial interface of the IPSAN. For
this purpose a terminal emulation program, such as Hyperterminal, TeraTerm,
PuTTY or similar is needed. The emulation program needs to be configured like
this:
Baudrate: 115200
Byterate: 8
Stopbits: 1
Paritybit: None
When accessing the CLI a prompt for username should be visible:
DM4650 login:
After that a prompt for the password is shown:
password:
The default values for these are:
Username: admin
Password: admin
After login it is highly recommended to change the password of the admin user.
The password can be changed when using the command passwd.
The following example shows the password changing procedure:

Password changed sucessfully.
DM4650#
For a guide on how to create more users besides the admin user please refer to
the IPSAN’s User Manual.[1]
10.2 Working with the CLI
To achieve any configuration on the IPSAN it is necessary to go into the so called
configuration menu by typing:
configure
Example:
DM4650#configure
DM4650(config)#
The builtin help can be accessed by pressing ’?’ or issuing the command help.
This is possible at any time when at the IPSAN’s prompt.
The IPSAN supports auto-completion. Based on the example above it is possible
to just type conf and confirm the command with ENTER or complete the command automatically by pressing TAB. This is possible with all commands when
at the IPSAN’s prompt.
Example:
DM4650#conf
DM4650(config)#
When a menu is active, more information about the menu is available by issuing
the following command:
show this
Note:In some menus it isn’t possible to do that, e.g. the configuration menu.
Example:
204.4288.00
DATACOM

DM4650(unit-gpon-7)#show this
Unit: 7
Authentication method: serial-number
Key exchange interval: 3600
DM4650(unit-gpon-7)#
To exit a menu this command is given:
exit
Example:
DM4650(config)#exit
DM4650#
10.3 Saving configurations
There are two options for saving configurations to the persistent flash storage
of the IPSAN. The first option is in combination with marking it as startupconfiguration and the second option is without marking it as startup configuration. When a configuration is marked as startup-configuration it gets loaded
upon the next startup of the IPSAN.
To save a configuration and mark it for the next startup the following command
must be issued:
copy running-config startup-config <flash-position>
Description of the used parameters:
Name Format Description
<flash-position> Number (1-10) Position where the configuration is stored
Example:
DM4650#copy running-config startup-config 10
Saving running configuration in flash 10...
DM4650#
To store a configuration without marking it as startup the following command is
given at the standard prompt:
copy running-config flash-config <flash-position>
Description of the used parameters:
