Information about RPD Bring Up

Remote PHY device bring up process is prerequisite to the operation of the remote PHY system, just like the cable modem bring up in a DOCSIS system.

How to Bring Up RPD

This section describes how to bring up RPD on Cisco cBR-8.

Configuring DHCP Server

To configure DHCP server, follow the steps below:

Procedure
    Step 1   Add option for CCAP-Core. Fill in the name, DHCP type, and vendor option string as shown in the figure below.
    Step 2   Define option. Fill in the option number and name as shown in the figure below.
    Step 3   Define suboption. Fill in the name, type and repeat of suboption 61 as shown in the figure below..
    Step 4   Add the option into policy as shown in the figure below. Replace the IP address 120.102.15.1 in the figure to the DPIC port IP address.

    Configuring PTP

    To configure PTP, use the following example as reference:

    On cBR-8 router:

    interface Loopback1588
  ip address 159.159.159.4 255.255.255.255
interface TenGigabitEthernet5/1/3   /* connect to ASR903 */
  ip address 192.104.10.4 255.255.255.0

ip route 10.90.3.93 255.255.255.255 192.104.10.93   /* route to ASR903 loopback ip */

ptp clock ordinary domain 0
  servo tracking-type R-DTI
  clock-port slave-from-903 slave
    delay-req interval -4
    sync interval -5
    sync one-step
    transport ipv4 unicast interface Lo1588 negotiation
    clock source 10.90.3.93   /* ASR903 loopback ip */

ptp r-dti 1
  ptp-domain 0   /* same domain number with ptp server */
  clock-port 1
    ethernet 1   /* default value is same index with clock-port index, for RPD, ethernet 1=vbh0, ethernet 2=vbh1 */
    clock-source 10.90.3.93 gateway 93.3.10.2   /* clock-source is ASR093 loopback ip, gateway is ASR903 BDI ID for node */

    On ASR903 router as PTP master:

    ptp clock ordinary domain 0
 clock-port Master-to-all-cBR8 master
  sync interval -5
  sync one-step
  transport ipv4 unicast interface Lo1588 negotiation

interface Loopback1588
 ip address 10.90.3.93 255.255.255.255

interface GigabitEthernet0/3/5

  bridge-domain 31
 service instance 32 ethernet
  encapsulation dot1q 32
  rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric
  bridge-domain 32
interface BDI31   /* for cBR, SUP PIC */
 ip address 192.104.10.93 255.255.255.0
 no shut
interface BDI32   /* For RPD */
 ip address 93.3.10.2 255.255.255.0 
 no shut 

ip route 159.159.159.4 255.255.255.255 192.104.10.48   /* route to cbr-8 loopback ip */

    Configuring cBR-8

    To configure the cBR-8 to bring up the RPD, use the following example as reference: 

    /* D-PIC TenGiga interface config */
interface TenGigabitEthernet0/1/0
  ip address 93.3.10.1 255.255.255.0
  ip helper-address 20.1.0.33
