standards.

8) Security

When encryption is enable, PON encryption mode can be selected in Security window. TK3723 provides
three encryption modes. The first is “No Encryption”. The second is “AES 128-bit (Tecknovus-Mode)
Encryption”. The third is “Triple-Churning (CTC-Mode) Encryption”. Encryption mode applies to all PON
logical links. It contains encryption algorithm and key exchange protocol.
When OLT register a new link, the specified encryption mode will be applied to the link. Corresponding
default key exchange timer can also be assigned to the link. However, if the other information is provided
to the link, OLT will use that information to replace the default values. If the offered information to the link
was rejected by ONU, OLT will not be able to set encryption mode for the link. In this case, OLT will
generate a link alarm.
Key exchange timeout range is 0~65535s. Encryption mode is shown in Table 7.

listening problem, continued to restart the OLT. If NVS enable, this configuration will affect all other
configurations, even the affection will continue after OLT restarted.

Figure 25: Optical Power Monitoring

When do the configuration, disable OLT is not necessary. Normally, it will take effect immediately.
However, under the following three kinds of circumstances, the configuration won’t able to take effect
immediately.
a) If NVS is enabled, configuration settings store after OLT reset;
b) If previous configuration setting is “Optical monitoring not supported on this hardware”, status will
change until restarts. Statistical data will continue to report “Not Support”, until the OLT resets;
c) If previous configuration setting is “Optical monitoring not supported on this hardware”, status will
change until OLT resets. Statistical data won’t report “Not Supported” before OLT resets. However,
the statistical data collection will stop immediately.

4 ONU PARAMETERS CONFIGURATION

4.1 ONU INFORMATION

OLT information includes basic information and load information.

1) Basic information of ONU: includes ID information of firmware, such as MAC address, product model
No., product version and firmware version, etc. The "Enable ONU", "Disable ONU", "Upgrade ONU" and
"Reset ONU" buttons on the top of window can be enable, disable, upgrade or reboot ONU, as Figure 33.

Figure 33: Basic Information of ONU

2) The load information of ONU reverts some version No. of load and CRC, as Figure 34. Version No.
with 0000 and FFFF are reserved and represents load is not exist or unavailable.

Active Alarms can view the device real-time alarm, include alarm message entity, label and alarm ID.
ONU Green PON Settings can enabled/disabled ONU optical power energy-saving option, and set the
relational parameters.

4.2 PORTS

1) PON Port
The PON port information is shown as Figure 35.

Port Statistics can view the collection of statistical data and error count from the EPON equipment.
Stats Alarms can be used to configure alarms based on statistical data, view the name and detailed
description of the statistical alarms.

2) UNI Port
UNI port configuration as below:
a) Duplex mode option: when port set as full-duplex mode, can communicate with one another in
both directions simultaneously; when port set as half-duplex mode, can communicate in both
directions, but only one direction at a time (not simultaneously).; When port work set as auto-
negotiation mode, port will choose common transmission speed, duplex mode parameters.
b) Flow control option: when both side enable flow control, UNI port will managing the rate of data
transmission between two nodes to prevent a fast sender from outrunning a slow receiver. It
provides a mechanism for the receiver to control the transmission speed, so that the receiving
node is not overwhelmed with data from transmitting node
c) Port rate: set the UNI port rate. Port rate of local and remote side will auto-negotiation rate
parameters in auto-negotiation mode.
d) Prot auto-negotiation: Ports choose common transmission speed, duplex mode parameters in
auto-negotiation mode. If choose force auto-negotiation, the UNI port will be re-auto-negotiation.
Port Statistics can view the collection of statistical data and error count from the EPON equipment.
Stats Alarms can be used to configure alarms based on statistical data, view the name and detailed
description of the statistical alarms.
Port Rate Filtering can set the boundary numbers of the Ethernet port receives the broadcast frames. The
default value of maximum receives broadcast packets number is 2097151 (2 21-1), modify this default value
can be configured broadcast suppression, as Figure 36.

Figure 36: Broadcast Suppression Configuration

Port bridge mode is set the ONU user port uplink to MAC address learning mode, shown as Figure 37.
MAC address entry number can be set, these entry will automatically delete when entry lifetime to zero.
“Automatic Learning Entry Limit” set to 0 will disable address learning. “Learned Entry Age Limit” set to 0,
prohibit entry aging.

Forward mode can be set to the MAC access control. In this mode, the MAC learning is limit that port can
learn more address in allowed address list, but the MAC address not in allowed list frames are discarded.
The default mode is forward mode. Parameter setting is shown as Table 12.

4.3 LOOPBACK TEST

The loopback function is similar to the Ping of the IP layer, used to verify the connection status between
the local and remote devices. The function implement by local send the LBM (Loopback Message) to the
remote, based on whether receive the feedback LBR (Loopback Replay) from remote to verify the link
state. LBM and LBR is a single direction broadcast packets, base on packets receive reflects the link
connected between these two devices.

 USER MANUAL for OLT

Figure 38: Loopback Setting

OLT implement the logical link connectivity and link quality testing. If one port set loopback test, at least
one rule must be set for forward the frames without IP header. Without this rule, the return frames from the
port are discarded. This rule priority must be higher than the default discard the rule (priority 15).
Loopback parameters are shown as Table 13.
