Chapter: Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

With more wideband (WB) modems being deployed in cable plants, WB modem resiliency is an important feature. When a comparatively smaller number of cable modems (CMs) observe an impairment on an RF channel, then all cable modems using that RF channel are shut down irrespective of whether they are affected or not. Instead, the solution should be to communicate with the affected cable modems using the good RF channel, without affecting the other cable modems.

The Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature allows cable modems with multiple impaired RF channels to be allocated to a dynamically-created wideband interface, which ensures that the performance of the wideband cable modems is not drastically affected.

Prerequisites for Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

  • Set aside WB interfaces so that new WB interfaces can be dynamically created from the reserved list of WB interfaces.

  • Free up RF bandwidth so that those RF channels can be added to a resiliency bonding group (RBG).

  • Remove all existing RBG configuration from the WB interface.

Restrictions for the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

  • If an existing wideband interface is reserved as a Resiliency Bonding Group (RBG) and later the RBG is removed (through the no cable ds-resiliency command), the modems using this RBG go offline and the RBG configuration itself is deleted. Therefore, it is highly recommended that users should not configure an existing BG as an RBG.

  • This feature is enabled only when the number of cable modems observing an RF channel impairment is below the resiliency threshold. If the number of cable modems on an impaired RF channel is above the resiliency threshold, the impaired RF channel is temporarily removed from the bonding group.

  • A cable modem is assigned to an RBG on a first-come-first-served basis. To handle this feature optimally, it is recommended to set aside more WB interfaces and RF channel bandwidth.

  • The Cisco CMTS controls the freeing of unused RBGs, when there is no modem using the RGB. The freeing of the unused RGB may take some time and the RGB, which is not completely free cannot be used by the modems. Irrespective of the number of configured RBGs, if all the old RBGs are not completely set free and if the Cisco CMTS tries to move the cable modem to a new RBG, the Cisco CMTS moves the cable modem to the primary DS channel instead of RBG.

  • Only SFs on the WB interface associated with the primary SF are moved to an RBG. SFs on other interfaces will not be moved.

  • Static SFs are assigned to an RBG on a best effort quality of service (QoS).

  • If the resiliency rf-change-trigger setting does not have the secondary keyword set, only the primary SF is moved to the RBG or a NB interface.

  • If the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature is not enabled to use an RBG, only cable modems with impairments on the primary WB interface are moved to the NB interface.

  • SFs carrying multicast traffic are not moved.

There may not be enough reserved bonding groups to support all modems facing an impairment at any given time thus the following restrictions must be considered:

  • Each RBG has at least two RF channels.

  • RBG RF assignments are always a subset of the RF channel assignment of the parent WB interface.

  • If an RBG is unavailable for a cable modem, the SF of the CM is moved to a NB interface.

  • If a high percentage of cable modems experience an RF impairment and there are no more available bonding group IDs, the impaired RF itself may be removed from the bonding group. Removal of an impaired RF from a parent bonding group is also reflected in the RBG. If an RBG drops to a single RF, all SFs are moved to the NB interface.

The Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature has the following cross-functional restrictions:

  • All Dynamic service flows, whether they require a committed information rate (CIR) or not, typically voice flows, are created on the NB interface when an RF channel is impaired. Because all SFs assigned to an RBG are best effort only, voice calls may report a quality issue.

  • Cable modems participating in the resiliency mode do not take part in load balancing.

  • The Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature is only supported in the Dynamic Bandwidth Sharing (DBS) mode.

Information About Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

You can set aside unused bonding groups as RBGs. Ensure that each RF channel is assigned at least 1% of the available bandwidth. Use the cable rf-channel bandwidth-percent command to configure the RF channel bandwidth.


Note

If the bandwidth-percent is set to 100, the Cisco CMTS does not add any RFs to the RBG. In other words, this feature will not be enabled.

The Cisco CMTS controls the assignment and freeing of unused RBGs. If an RF channel is removed from a WB interface, it is also removed from any associated RBGs.


Note

If the wideband interface is in standby mode, the Cisco CMTS does not assign or free up the unused downstream bonding group.

A suspended RF channel is restored for all affected wideband interfaces when a specified number of cable modems report (via CM-STATUS) that the channel connectivity is restored. The Wideband Modem Resiliency feature defines the specified number of cable modems as half of the configured count or percentage of rf-change-trigger, or both. For example, if the count is 20 and the percent is 10, then the number of cable modems reporting recovery should reduce the count to 10 and the percent to 5 for the suspended RF channel to be restored.

Finding a Best-Fit RBG for the Cable Modem

A bonding group is a list of channels that provide a means to identify the channels that are bonded together. The Cisco CMTS assigns a service flow (SF) to an RBG based on the attributes of the SF and the attributes of the individual channels of the bonding group.

In the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature, when a line card receives a CM-STATUS message from the cable modem informing the line card that there is an RF channel impairment, the line card checks for the number of good RF channels and:

  • Moves the cable modem to narrowband mode if there is only one available RF channel.

  • Moves the cable modem to wideband mode if the cable modem reports all RF channels are in good state.

  • Moves the cable modem to an RBG if there are two or more good RF channels, with at least one RF channel impaired, and if the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature is enabled.

When the Cisco CMTS receives a message from the line card to move a cable modem to an RBG, the Cisco CMTS attempts to find an existing RBG or creates an RBG that satisfies the impairment.


Note

If two or more RBGs are reserved for the same wideband controller, the Cisco CMTS creates one RBG for each cable modem.


Note

The Cisco CMTS creates more than one RBG from a parent WB interface if the user has set aside more than one WB interface as the RBG and the RF bandwidth does not exceed 100%.

If a matching RBG is not found or cannot be created, the Cisco CMTS looks for an RBG with a subset of the required RF channels and if available, the cable modem is assigned to such an RBG.

However, if no such RBG exists, the Cisco CMTS instructs the line card to move the cable modem to NB mode.

    What to Do Next


    Note

    The result of using the cable rf-change-trigger command with the cable resiliency ds-bonding command is different from using only the cable rf-change-trigger command. For more information, see Downstream Resiliency Narrowband Mode Versus Resiliency Bonding Group.

    Reserving a Resiliency Bonding Group for a Line Card

    This section describes reserving a bonding group or a wideband interface for a line card per controller.

    Restriction:

    When you reserve a resiliency bonding group using the cable ds-resiliency command, the existing bundle and RF channel configurations on the wideband interface will be removed automatically. Other configurations like admission control, should be removed manually.

    After downstream resiliency bonding group is configured, avoid other manual configurations.

      Step 5exit


      Example: 
      Router(config-if)# exit
       

      Returns to the global configuration mode.

       

      Verifying Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group Configuration

      This section contains the following:

      Verifying the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group

      To verify if the Downstream Resiliency Bonding Group feature is enabled, use the show cable modem resiliency command as shown in the following example: 

      Router# show cable modem resiliency
