OMCI based GPON zNID
48 FTTH Application Guide
Create Supports for zNID
This procedure describes the creation of the ME profile file, the ME profile,
and the Generic profile. In normal deployment you will create profiles for the
ONT models and the service plans in initial deployment and seldom
afterward, unless you want to add a new ONT model or define another service
plan.
Adding OMCI support to each user's zNIDs by creating Specific profile will
be covered in the application procedures.
For each application we will assume that the ME profile and Generic profile
are configured and in place. In other words for each application we will begin
with adding a new user, which is where you would normally begin in a normal
deployment effort.
Note: Each user's zNID may have only one ME profile, however, as
a service provider, you may have multiple ME profiles for a zNID
model for different deployments.
For ease of deployment it is recommended that you have a separate ME file
only for different physical port configurations. For example, with the zNID
2510 which has four Ethernet ports and two POTS ports, if you want to have
triple-play services, you may always have the POTS ports selected for voice
service, but since the Ethernet ports may be either data or video ports you
might have an ME profile which has one data and three video ports
configured (a likely residential scenario). You may also have a scenario where
you have three data ports and one video ports, or all data ports. In each
scenario you would have a separate ME configuration file. In the deployment
process you would associate the ME profile with the service plan.
For ME profiles which have all ports designated, such as the three video, one
data configuration residential scenario described above, you could configure
the service plan (Generic profile) to only use some of the ports.
