1. Introduction
EPON is a point to multipoint communications protocol based on Gigabit Ethernet.
It allows a Gigabit Ethernet communications ber to be shared by multiple end
users using a passive optical splitter. EPON communication takes place between
an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) and multiple Optical Network Units (ONUs). Using
standard terminology, downstream trafc ows from OLT to ONU, and upstream
trafc ows from ONU to OLT. A protocol called Multi Point Control Protocol (MPCP)
is used to arbitrate the channel between the ONU’s so that no collisions will occur
on the common ber.
With growing network services such as HDTV, IPTV, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and
Multimedia broadband applications, and the demand of broadband rises quickly. The
present Broadband environment has not already accorded with needing; however,
Passive Optical Network (PON) would be the most promising NGN (Next Generation
Networking) technology to fulll the demand.
PLANET EPL-1000 is a GEPON Optical Line Terminal (OLT) which designed with
one GEPON port, one Gigabit TP / SFP Combo Interface and one management
port. It is easy installation and maintenance for GEPON deployment. Applications

The system supports one xed PON port, the max. Split ratio is up to 1:32 per
PON port. Connect the single mode ber to the Splitter or ONUs. The PON port
provides the high bandwidth up to 1.25Gbps for both upstream and downstream,
up to 20km Long-Distance Coverage between equipment nodes.
Step 5. Connecting the Console Port and MGMT Port
You can use the Console Port and MGMT Port to manage the EPL-1000. The
connection gure is shown below; please follow next section to setup your system.
4.2 Software Setup
This section illustrates how to establish basic connectivity on the PON. After
completing this section the user will be able to transport packets across the
system, and will be ready to start advanced testing. The Software Setup consists
of installing a Terminal utility to access the Evaluation Kit CLIs and a sophisticated
GUI to manage the system.
4.2.1 Console Port Command Line Interface
The EPL-1000 has a 10/100 Mb MGMT port in for the connection of a management
GUI. It also has Command Line Interface (CLI) access through a Console port
on each board (ONU and OLT). By connecting a straight-through serial cable to
any board to a serial COM port on a PC, the user can access each chip for low
level diagnostics and debugging. Although there are many commercial available
Terminal Utilities such as MS Windows HyperTerminal, Tera Term is used in this
User’s manual as the Terminal Utility of choice. Tera Term is recommended if you
wish to perform rmware upgrades using the CLI. This has been found to be the
most reliable tool for downloading binary les to the ONU and OLT. It can be
downloaded for free from http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html.
Please download and install on each PC being used to connect to EPL-1000. Once
installed, congure the Transmit settings as follows.
1) Setup the serial port by selecting “Serial Port” from the Tera Term “Setup”
menu.

EPL-1000 GUI Personality Setup
The EPL-1000 supports a 10/100Mb Management interface for User-Friendly
GUI Management. Prior to installing the GUI, it may be necessary to modify the
Host and Management IP addresses conguration stored in the OLT personality
ash. It can either be left as the defaults or changed to suit your own network
environment.
You can see what the current settings are by typing the following commands.
Commands shown below must be entered at the Tera Term command prompt for
the EPL-1000.
1) 3721/>pers [Enter]
2) 3721/pers/>show [Enter]
This will result in information about the state of the personality ash being
displayed. The items near the end of the prints are the current Management
Interface Settings. Typically the factory settings are:
Management interface settings:
Physical interface: ethernet
Management VLAN: 4095
Transport protocol: udp
Local IP cong: static
Host IP cong: static
Host IP: 192.168.1.100
Mgmt IP: 192.168.1.101
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
The Mgmt IP address refers to the IP address of the OLT 10/100Mb MGMT Port.
The Host IP address refers to the IP address of the PC which is running the GUI
Utility. The default settings are for both of these IP addresses to be statically
assigned. The netmask should be set to suit the class of the IP addresses. In
addition to the 10/100Mb MGMT Port, management can also be performed in-band.
In this case the MGMT Port is not connected. Instead the OLT is programmed for
in-band management and the user sets the VID of the VLAN used for management.
The Transport protocol should always be set to UDP.
The following sections outline how to change the settings for each of the
management options.
MGMT Port – Static IP Addresses
If you are controlling the EPON system from a local PC connected directly to the
management port, these settings should sufce. Additionally if you have the OLT
connected to your network and you are using local addressing in the 192.168.1.x
subnet, they will also be appropriate. If on the other hand you wish to change
them to match you local network, you may do so as follows:
To change the IP Address assigned to the Host PC (this must match the Host PC IP
Address):
1) 3721/>pers [Enter]
2) 3721/pers/>hostip 192 168 1 100 [Enter]
To change the IP Address that is assigned to the OLT management port:
1) 3721/pers/>mgmtip 192 168 1 101 [Enter]
If you are not using Class C Addresses, you should also change the netmask to
suit:
1) 3721/pers/>netmask 255 255 255 0 [Enter]
To make the new settings take effect you must reboot.
Prior to installing the GUI, you must set up your network adapter’s IP address to
match the setting found in the OLT’s personality ash (default = 192.168.1.100).
Set the adapter’s IP to match the value found in the personality ash for Host IP.
Once the adaptor is set appropriately, connect an Ethernet cable to the 10/100 Mb
management port. In addition you should also set the Management Port Parameters
in the GUI’s Utilities -> Settings dialog. These should match the settings found in
the CLI.
4.2.2 GUI Utility Installation
The Utility comes with sophisticated software Graphical User Interface (GUI). It
is highly intuitive and allows the user to control the EPON and set such things
as SLAs, bridging and VLAN modes, static table entries, and to perform rmware
upgrades etc. It is found in the Utility folder on the CD provided. To install and use
the GUI, do the following:
1) Copy the contents of your CD to the PC you will be using as your EPON manage
ment PC.
2) Locate the Utility folder and create a shortcut to the GUI Utility.exe le and place
on your desktop or somewhere suitable.
15

16
3) Once you have connected all of the hardware, followed the instructions in the
Initial Power Up section, set the personality ash to suit your management interface method you can start the GUI. The default MGMT IP is 192.168.1.101
and the Host IP is 192.168.1.100. Please make sure that the IP of your
management PC is 192.168.1.100.
Double click on the GUI Utility Icon in the Utility folder or at the shortcut. The
GUI should start and you should see a window similar to the one shown as
below gure.
If the OLT is running normally and the ONUs register each of their LLIDs, you
should see something similar to the gure. The left hand pane shows the MAC
addresses of the OLT and the ONU’s LLIDs. Depending on the number of ONUs,
LLIDs, MAC addresses etc you may see something slightly different. If the GUI fails
to connect to the OLT, check the IP addresses of the Host PC and the management
port. Make sure you can ping the IP address assigned to the management port.
Also verify that the Host and management IP addresses match in the GUI’s Utilities
-> Settings tab.
