Today we would like to share a case about the issue that the ONT configuration status fails on Huawei OLT. Please see more information shown below.
Product model: SmartAX MA5608T.
ISSUE DESCRIPTION
After an ONT is added to the MA5608T, a user runs the display ont info command to query the ONT status. The command output shows that the config state is failed.
ISSUE ANALYSIS
1. Run the display ont failed-configuration command to check the ONT configuration restoration failure information.
2. Query the ONT line configuration.
3. Confirm that the ONT supports a maximum of 8 T-CONTs.
OLT judgment logic: if the number of T-CONTs reported by the ONT is greater than or equal to the number of T-CONTs reported by the ONT, the OLT determines that the number exceeds the ONT capability set.
ROOT CAUSE
The number of configured T-CONTs exceeds the maximum capability of the ONT.
SOLUTION DESCRIPTION
Change the T-CONT range from 0 to 7 and bind the T-CONT to the ONT again. The configuration status is restored.
