ONT Registrations

Overview About ONT Registration

The following sections provide information about ONT registration.

About ONT Registration

An OLT supports two types of registration mode—automatic registration and manual registration.

ONT Manual Registration Configuration

You can manually register an ONT by defining an authentication registration rule and specifying the service template for configuring the ONT. The manual registration also requires the ONT authentication mode, the ONT authentication parameter, the ONT service template binding, and the ONT discovery mode to be configured.

ONT Automatic Registration Configuration

You can automate the ONT registration to reduce the workload of manual configuration. Automatic registration requires configuration of auto-configuration templates that are referenced based on the ONT type. Each type of ONT can be further configured to reference a separate line template.

After automatic configuration of an ONT is enabled, the OLT automatically generates a rule template based on the serial number authentication mode (the line template specified in the automatic configuration template of the rule entry). The ONT can be automatically registered online. The OLT sends the corresponding line template to the ONT to complete the automatic configuration process.

On enabling the automatic configuration on the ONT, the OLT automatically generates a rule template based on the serial number authentication mode.


Note

Serial number authentication mode is defined in the line template that is part of the automatic configuration template of the rule entry.

The OLT sends the corresponding line template to the ONT to complete the automatic configuration process. The ONT is then automatically registered online.

Types of ONT Registration

This section describes the various function configurations related to the ONT registration. It mainly includes how to let the OLT discover the ONTs connected to the PON port. We recommend that you configure the correct authentication mode.

About ONT Auto Discovery

ONT auto discovery enables the OLT to detect newly added ONTs under a designated PON port automatically. If auto discovery is enabled on a PON port of the OLT, and an unregistered ONT is added to the PON port, the ONT information is compared with the service profile line template configured by the OLT. If the ONT information matches the requirements of the service profile line template, then the ONT is registered, and the ONT information is deleted from the discovery list.

About ONT Silent

An ONT can be configured to be in silent state if the ONT fails authentication, or after the authentication, if the ONT is offline for a long time.

About the ONT Register-Record Threshold Alarm

You can limit the number of ONTs that can be registered on the PON port by setting a threshold value. If the number of ONTs on the PON port exceeds the threshold value, an alarm is generated. The alarm is cancelled once the number of ONTs is less than the threshold value.

How to Configure ONT Registration

The following sections provide configuration information on how to register an ONT.

Configure ONT Auto Discovery

  • Auto discovery is enabled when the auto discover interval of the GPON port is configured.

  • A port is restarted each time the port's logical distance parameter is changed. The ONTs go offline and come back online again.

  • The differential distance between cannot exceed 20 km.

To configure ONT auto discovery, perform this procedure.

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

Enter your password, if prompted.

Step 2

configure terminal

Example:

Use the no ont-find distance interface gpon {slot-number/port-number | all} command to disable the default distance configurations.

Configuring ONT Automatic Registration

If the device type of the ONT does not match the device type of the auto configuration template, the rule template will not be automatically generated. Unless the rule corresponding to the all-ont command is configured in the auto configuration template, the OLT will bind the template in the all-ont entry as the default template, and then generate the rule template of the ONT.

To configure ONT automatic registration, perform this procedure.

Before you begin

  • The ONT auto discovery function must be enabled before configuring the ONT automatic registration.

  • You must configure the line profile before configuring ONT automatic registration. To configure the line profile, see Configuring Line Profile.

  • You must configure the DBA profile before configuring ONT automatic registration. To configure the DBA profile, see Configuring DBA profile.

  • The device type name must conform to the GPON Terminal Naming Specification.

Procedure

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enter your password, if prompted.

Step 2

configure terminal

Example:

Device# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

[no] ont auto-config

Example:

Device(config)# ont auto-config

Enables the auto configuration function.

Use the no ont auto-config command to disable the auto-configuration.

Step 4

ont auto-config{index_num [name name ] | name name} {all-ont | device-type device_type}

Example:

Device(config)# ont auto-config 2 device-type n40-429 line 3

Enables the auto configuration function on all the devices or a particular device.

  • index_num : The index of the template. The range is from 0 to m, where m is the maximum number of ONTs supported.

  • name : The name of the template, in string format.

  • device_type : The device identifier, in string format.

Configuring ONT Manual Registration

To configure ONT manual registration, perform this procedure.

Before you begin

  • You must configure the line profile before configuring ONT automatic registration. To configure the line profile, see Configuring Line Profile.

  • You must configure the DBA profile before configuring ONT automatic registration. To configure the DBA profile, see Configuring DBA profile.

  • Each rule profile template entry can refer multiple service profile templates based on the rule profile template entry index value. The service profile templates are distributed based on the different device type.

  • Based on the template entry name, only one service profile template can be referenced.

  • A default service profile template can be specified for the ONT manual registration.

    If the device type reported by the ONT does not match the service profile template, the default service profile template will be forcibly delivered.
