This feature has been implemented through the addition of the arrisMtaDevSwDnldNoSvcImpact MIB object. the modem will power down the LAN interface and switch to 1x1 bonded mode. the operator must manually reset the modem. Due to the nature of the power-management feature. the eMTA activates data interface and restore its original bonding mode. This MIB can also be set via SNMP or the CLI.0 cable modem specifications with 8x4 channel bonding. is set to enabled in the CM configuration file the packet threshold value is set to 3 packets and the timeout is set to 1 second. The default behavior of this MIB is disabled in order to be compliant with the DOCSIS specification which states 1000 packets and a timeout of 2 minutes. Please note that USB is not supported on TM802 hardware. However. Enable(1) – Download firmware immediately but delay the reboot unit all line are on-hook and no connects are active. The value for this MIB is stored to NVRAM. Value settings are described below with the default setting set to Enable(1): Disable(0) – Always download firmware and reboot immediately after firmware download. arrisCmDoc30SetupReducedOORThreshold. the reboot occurs autonomously. Out of Range (OOR) Threshold Change This release of firmware supports the ability to enable a reduced combination of Out of Range (OOR) packet sequence numbers the modem will discard and the minimum time it will wait before it re-synchronizes with the CMTS.139 Power Save Management TS7. For CLI and SNMP changes. synchronous upstreams (S-CDMA/S-TDMA) are not currently supported on Model 8 units. Release Notes & Letter of Operational Consideration 10 . StrictEnable(2) – Do not download firmware if any phone endpoint is off hook. Once AC power is restored. When the modem loses AC power and the data shutdown timer expires. a modem reset is required before the new OOR threshold values take effect.Release 7.3. For a configuration file change.
