- Check the BNG IP Ping from DSLAM
- Check the LED Status of Uplink Port 5/1 or 5/2 , Control Card, Power Card & Converter.
- Check the DSL Status in a MODEM at different Ports of DSLAM in MDF.

- Contact to SSA NIB Team or Gujarat Circle Broadband NOC or Pune NOC team to check the ping &
Telnet of DSLAM & the Status in concern Parent OCLAN / Tier-1 / Tier-2 & BNG

- Check the OCLAN Port Status ( on which the DSLAM is connected ) in OCLAN
OCLAN Commands > show arp ( Check the uplink port of OCLAN )
> show interface fei_4/5 ( Check the status of OCLAN Port to which DSLAM is connected )
> show mac vlan 3485 ( Check mac addresses for DSLAM outer VLAN )

( Here 3485 = DSLAM’s outer VLAN. Check the MAC for DSLAM Outer VLAN, one MAC on OCLAN Uplink Port & at least
one MAC on the port to which the DSLAM is connected )

- Check the Configuration Status & Passed Inner VLAN of DSLAM in concern BNG
BNG Commands > context local
> show configuration | begin 3859 ( 3859 = DSLAM Outer VLAN )
Check that all inner VLANs of DSLAM are shown in configuration. Inform Pune NOC Team to configure for remaining
inner VLANs.

- Check the Up/Active subscribers of DSLAM in concern BNG

BNG Commands > context mgmt
> show subscribers all | grep 3859: ( DSLAM Outer VLAN & “:” colon sign )
Check the user ID list of connected/up Subscribers of DSLAM in BNG. In case of Up subscribers are shown in DSLAM
but no Up subscribers are shown in BNG, Inform Pune NOC team to check the DSLAM & Parent OCLAN/T1/T2
configuration.
