 OLT Working
Each OLT Given a
OLT is Like a
Outer VLAN and
MUX/DEMUX
many Inner VLAN,
Voice also is a Inner
VLAN

1G Uplink from
DSLAM / CPAN
/OCLAN
/RPR/PTN/
MNGPAN
One VLAN

EPON vs GPON
Capacity 64 vs 128
Cost
Services available
Ease of use

Economics
L2 and L3 OLT
Low cost pre 2017 OLTs

L3 is best suited for BSNL

L2 OLTs with switch

Some OLTs has restriction for Number of VLANs
Uplink and Switches
Some LCOs will be connecting L2 OLTs to Switches ,
Some of switches will have Optical Uplink , some
may be via Electrical Convertors .

Most OLTs nowadays has Optical Input both 1 G and

10 G

BSNL gives link most commonly as 1G some cases

even 10G

Best Practice is Optical input directly to OLTs

Connectivity at a Multi ISP LCO
EPON OLT Config
VLAN Create
VLAN Tagging in Uplink and PON Port
OLT IP Config
Testing
GPON OLT Config
VLAN Create
VLAN Tagging in Uplink
OLT IP Config
Service Profile
Line Profile
Profile Binding
Testing
Diagnostics with bbtest
bbtest / bsnlmp
It will connect to any internet inner vlan tagged to
BSNL Uplink side

Reason for bbtest not connecting

VLAN Tagging in OLT not proper
Username pwd error
Already that VLAN is used for some other connection
Profile issue in case of GPON OLT
Uplink fiber cut or config issue
Common Issues
VLAN Loop
Mac Table
Vlan Tag issues
Line profile not added
VLAN Untag testing to see for speed issues etc
VLAN repeat
Uplink Power Levels
PTN -9 dBm to – 14 dBm
MNG PAN upto - 14 for 40km sfp -21 for 80km sfp

 Ring Power Range Upto -14dBm 40km sfp -21 for 80km
