How to Bring Up Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200

This section describes how to bring up Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200.

Configuring Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200

After powering up, user needs to configure host name, login password and management IP of the Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200. See the following examples: 

HA-Shelf-FCC# configure terminal
HA-Shelf-FCC(config)# hostname prefix Shelf

Shlef(config)#login password Dp*14raR

Shlef(config)#mgmt ip 1.200.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 1.200.1.0

User also need to configure SFP+ port mode and eRPD trunk mode based on actual network topology. Refer to Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200 Backhaul Port Mapping and Link Redundancy Configuration and Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200 Trunk VLAN Configuration for more details.

Resetting Login Password

If the user forgets the login password of the Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200. Use the following steps to reset the password and set a new one.

  1. Power cycle the Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200 and wait for the FCC to boot up, press Ctrl+C to enter the FCC uboot when Hit Ctrl+c to stop autoboot in 10s is displayed: 

    U-Boot 2016.01 (Oct 30 2018 - 05:09:48 +0000)
SoC: LS1043E Rev1.1 (0x87920011)
Clock Configuration:

## Starting application at 0xA0000000 ...
7a:bd:44:a1:00:00
## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
FM1@DTSEC2, FM1@DTSEC9 [PRIME]
Hit Ctrl+c to stop autoboot in 10s

  2. Type rstpwd, and then follow the prompt, type sboot to boot up to the system. 

    Hit Ctrl+c to stop autoboot in 10s
=> 
=> 
=> rstpwd
Reset IOS CLI password flag is set,please run sboot/tftp booting up your IOS image,password will be auto reset.
=> sboot

  3. When the Password: prompts again, user is able to use the default password admin to log in to Cisco Remote PHY Shelf 7200 FCC command mode.

  4. Use login password command to change the password and save it correctly.

    HA-Shelf-FCC#config terminal
HA-Shelf-FCC(config)#login password Dp*14raR
Chassis login password configured successfully.
HA-Shelf-FCC(config)#end
HA-Shelf-FCC#
HA-Shelf-FCC#write

Write startup configuration successfully.
HA-Shelf-FCC#

Configuring DHCP Server

You can choose to configure the DHCP server using any of the following methods.

Configuring DHCP Server using IPv4

To configure DHCP server using IPv4, follow the steps below:

  1. Add option for CCAP-Core. Fill in the name, DHCP type, and vendor option string as shown in the figure below.

  2. Define option. Fill in the option number and name as shown in the figure below.

  3. Define suboption. Fill in the name, type and repeat of suboption 61 as shown in the following figure.

  4. Add the option into policy as shown in the following figure. Replace the IP address 120.102.15.1 in the figure to the DPIC port IP address.

Configuring DHCP Server using IPv6 Stateless

The Cisco Remote PHY System supports the Stateless Address Auto Configuration (SLAAC). IPv6 address assignment of the RPD is governed by the configuration bits set in the ICMPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) message and the presence of a valid prefix in the Prefix Information Option (PIO). For more information about RPD IPv6 address assignment, refer to section 6.7 of Remote PHY Specification.

To configure DHCP server using IPv6 Stateless and enable SLAAC, follow the steps below:

  1. Configure Prefix Type to “stateless” in CNR prefix.

  2. Configure ICMPv6 Router RA message M Bit=0 and O Bit =1.


Note

It is recommended that you follow the DHCP options listed in Table 2 - Router Advertisement M Bit and O Bit Settings For SLAAC of section 6.7.1 (CM-SP-R-PHY-I10) or 6.6.1 (CM-SP-R-PHY-I11) in the Remote PHY Specification.

To display the RPD get IPv6 address by SLAAC, use the show dhcp command. 

R-PHY#show dhcp 
Interface  IP-Address                        Subnet-Mask            
vbh0       2001:93:3:58:1204:9fff:fec1:100  ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::

CCAPCores:                    2001:93:3:58::1

Configuring DHCP Server using IPv6 Stateful

To configure DHCP server using IPv6 Stateful, follow the steps below:

  1. Configure Prefix Type to “dhcp” in CNR prefix. See the following image.

  2. Configure ICMPv6 Router RA message M Bit=1.

To display the RPD get IPv6 address by Stateful method, use the show dhcp command. 

R-PHY#show dhcp 
Interface  IP-Address                        Subnet-Mask            
vbh0       2001:93:3:58::d8  ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:: 

Details:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
