Hello everybody,
First of all I hope I'm on a right forum to ask this question. I had my 1st cable connection today, before I've always had dsl. Everything works fine but I realized that the "cable activity" diod of the THG540 modem blinks like crazy even if do nothing on the net. I had a look at the network with tcpdump and I can see a LOT of ARP request of my ISP (Kabel Deutschland). Is this normal in the cable technology ? Since the APR packets are not routable, does it mean that I'm on a LAN of my ISP with other clients ?
Can someone look over my dhcpd.conf config and see if it looks okay? After fighting the provisioning software we just acquired, I've decided that since we have all the customer info in database form already, that I'm just going to write my own. When subscribers are added or removed, I'm just going to have it dynamically rebuild the dhcpd.conf file from the db and upload it to the dhcp server via ftp (then restart the service).
Anyway, I just put this file together and don't have time to test it now (will in the morning) so can anyone point out any glaring errors?
I have an odd problem I'm hoping to solve.
Is it possible to get a CM to forward the config file (it gets via tftp) to the PC sitting behind the CM?
Logged into the CM, I see that I can 'tftp put' files, so that would work. But it looks like CMs don't save their tftp config
files anywhere. Do CMs typically just parse the config file without saving it anywhere?
I am just wondering if ya'll have an easier way of locating a modem(s) that is putting out a lot of uncorrectable data on the upstream port. Currently I use a mib browser and query all the modems on that particular upstream port looking for uncorrectable amounts that stick out, document them and then recheck a few minutes later. This can be very time consuming on certain nodes that have 200 or so modems. Any suggestions on an easier way to do this. Also, do ya'll have any daily tasks that you perform on the cmts side of the network?
We just purchased a blonder tongue CMTS and are attempting to get it up and running. We purchased the management software from Blonder Tongue as well, which is actually created by Coresma. Based on references in the documentation and the configs, I believe the CMTS to be a rebadged EVR (or at least running the same firmware).
Hi
I need to enable the CM web page in some SB5101, like I have in the CM 550a from Arris. But I am having problems, I already try to enable with some OID that found in the web, without luck.
The provider don't have any idea about what I am asking.
