Today we’ll learn how to configure a VSOL GPON OLT step by step. Many users find VSOL OLT configuration slightly complex at first, but once you understand the workflow, it becomes straightforward.
This guide covers:
- OLT Access
- Uplink Configuration
- Management VLAN Setup
- ONU Profile Creation
- DBA Profile Creation
- Service Profile Setup
- Line Profile Setup
- Binding Profiles to PON Ports
- Additional Useful Commands
Let’s begin.
Step 1: Access the VSOL GPON OLT
You can access the VSOL GPON OLT in two ways:
Method 1: Access via AUX Port
- Connect an Ethernet cable from your PC/Laptop to the OLT AUX Port.
- The default AUX IP address is:
192.168.8.200- Configure your PC LAN settings:
IP Address: 192.168.8.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0- Open the web interface:
https://192.168.8.200Enable Telnet Access
By default, Telnet is disabled.
Navigate to:
System → Login ManagementRemove Telnet from the filter list and save.
Then access via:
telnet 192.168.8.200Method 2: Access via Console Port
- Connect your laptop to the OLT Console Port using a console cable.
- Open PuTTY.
- Select Serial Connection.
- Enter your COM port and connect.
Default Login Credentials
IP Address: 192.168.8.200
Username: admin
Password: Xpon@Olt9417#
Enable Password: Xpon@Olt9417#Step 2: Configure Uplink
In this example, we are configuring a 4-Port VSOL GPON OLT, assigning a different VLAN for each PON port.
Create VLANs
gpon-olt# configure terminal
gpon-olt(config)# vlan 2026-2029
gpon-olt(config)# exitConfigure Uplink Port (G1)
gpon-olt(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
gpon-olt(config-if-ge0/1)# switchport mode hybrid
gpon-olt(config-if-ge0/1)# switchport hybrid vlan 2026-2029 taggedConfigure Management VLAN
Create VLAN 100 for management.
gpon-olt(config)# vlan 100
gpon-olt(config)# interface vlan 100
gpon-olt(interface-vlan-100)# ip address 172.31.31.66 255.255.255.252
gpon-olt(interface-vlan-100)# exit
gpon-olt(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0/0 172.31.31.65This allows local network access to the OLT.
Enable Telnet via CLI
By default Telnet access is blocked.
gpon-olt(config)# no login-access-list deny telnet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0Step 3: Create ONU Profile
Create an ONU profile for a 1-Port ONU.
gpon-olt(config)# profile onu id 2 name gpononu
gpon-olt(profile-onu:2)# port-num eth 1
gpon-olt(profile-onu:2)# commit
gpon-olt(profile-onu:2)# exit
gpon-olt(config)# onu auto-learn default-onu-profile xponExplanation:
- ONU Profile ID = 2
- Profile Name = gpononu
- Ethernet Ports = 1
Step 4: Create DBA Profile
DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation) controls ONU bandwidth allocation.
View existing profiles:
show profile dbaCreate a new profile:
gpon-olt(config)# profile dba id 2 name dbagpon
gpon-olt(profile-dba:2)# type 4 maximum 1024000
gpon-olt(profile-dba:2)# commit
gpon-olt(profile-dba:2)# exitDelete DBA Profile:
gpon-olt(config)# no profile dba id 2Step 5: Create Service Profile
Service Profile maps VLANs to ONU Ethernet interfaces.
View existing profiles:
show profile srvCreate Service Profile:
gpon-olt(config)# profile srv id 2 name srv_1_pon1_vlan_2026
gpon-olt(profile-srv:2)# portvlan eth 1 mode tag vlan 2026
gpon-olt(profile-srv:2)# commit
gpon-olt(profile-srv:2)# exitDelete Service Profile:
gpon-olt(config)# no profile srv id 2Step 6: Create Line Profile
Line Profile links DBA, GEMPORT, and VLAN services.
gpon-olt(config)# show profile line
gpon-olt(config)# profile line id 2 name line_1_pon1_vlan_2026
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# tcont 1 name 1 dba dbagpon
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# gemport 1 tcont 1 gemport_name 1
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# service srv_1 gemport 1 vlan 2026
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# service-port 1 gemport 1 uservlan 2026 vlan 2026
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# commit
gpon-olt(profile-line:2)# exitStep 7: Bind Profiles to PON Port
Assign Service Profile and Line Profile to the desired PON interface.
Example for PON Port 1:
gpon-olt(config)# interface gpon 0/1
gpon-olt(config-pon-0/1)# onu auto-learn
gpon-olt(config-pon-0/1)# onu auto-learn srv-profile name srv_1_pon1_vlan_2026
gpon-olt(config-pon-0/1)# onu auto-learn line-profile name line_1_pon1_vlan_2026
gpon-olt(config-pon-0/1)# exit
gpon-olt(config)# writeYour PON Port 1 is now configured and ready to provide internet using VLAN 2026.
Change Hostname
gpon-olt(config)# hostname POLLYBD
POLLYBD(config)# writeCreate New User in VSOL OLT
GPON_OLT# configure terminal
GPON_OLT(config)# user add kamrul login-password E4ZPTIvGI
GPON_OLT(config)# user role kamrul admin enable-password E4ZPTIvGIDisable Web Verification Code
Disable:
GPON_OLT(config)# web verification-code disableEnable:
GPON_OLT(config)# web verification-code enableConfigure NTP Server
GPON_OLT(config)# ntp server enable
GPON_OLT(config)# ntp server 103.15.140.4Conclusion
You have successfully completed the basic VSOL GPON OLT configuration process including uplink setup, VLAN configuration, ONU provisioning, bandwidth allocation, and service deployment.
This setup method can be adapted for multiple PON ports and different VLAN architectures depending on your ISP or enterprise requirements.
If you face any issues during configuration, feel free to leave a comment or reach out.
