The MPT-MNG Pro DOCSIS Provisioning System is designed to address three main issues:
1. To effectively and efficiently deal with provisioning a great number of cable modems, especially under adverse conditions such as if they all come on-line simultaneously using TFTP Memory fetch (Mpthrill's TMF)
2. To help facilitate the migration from DOCSIS 1.0 to DOCSIS 1.1 via automated provisioning methods.
3. To facilitate the auto-provisioning of multi-ISP broadband services.
 

Technical Features:

1. Multi threaded TFTP server optimized for DOCSIS environment (i.e., many requests for small files) and capable of dynamic file generation.
2. Multi Threaded DHCP server with Option codes 12, 15, 60, 82 and 177 capable of supporting all DOCSIS devices.
3. Support for the DHCP fully qualified domain name option.
4. Both DHCP and TFTP engines are independent of data source. The data source is a MySQL Database.
5. Configuration file directory structure to support large number of Cable Modems.
6. TFTP and DHCP servers communicate with each other about ongoing client requests and responses, leading to faster and more efficient operations.
7. Ability to use CLI Scripts for IP Management
8. Supports email alarms when IP Addresses are running low
9. Support for Multiple VLAN's / Cisco MPLS (VRF)
 

DHCP Special Features:

• DOCSIS modems have their own database table with MAC, IP and config file.

• Customer IPs are assigned based upon IP ranges.

• Customer IPs are not recycled. Once a customer has an IP he will keep that IP until he changes his ethernet MAC.

• Cable modem MAC is also logged with each customer dhcp request. If you know which cable modem a customer has you also know which IP addresses he has.

• The usual path for an incoming DHCP request is to query the incoming MAC against the DOCSIS table and if that does not have any result then query the customer MAC table.

• The DHCP server also has mechanisms to speed up the recovery after the CMTS resets. The DHCP server caches all DOCSIS modem info in memory. If the load on the server goes above 0.75 or it receives more than 15 requests in 1 second it will start serving DOCSIS modem IPs from the in memory cache. It also suspends logging when the server load is high.

• The Cisco CMTS keeps track of all the customer PC dhcp leases it forwards to the DHCP server. If the CMTS gets reset it loses this information. At this point the DHCP server has given the Customer a lease of an IP address for a certain amount of time. The Customer PC will not attempt to renew the lease until it is almost out of time. When the CMTS sees traffic from an IP it does not know about it sends a special message called a DHCP LEASE QUERY to the DHCP server. This Lease query allows it to find out about DHCP leases that it has forgotten about.

• MPT-MNG Pro DHCP Server will allow to boot up to 150 Cable modems in 10 seconds.

TFTP Special Features:

• When it receives a request for a file this TFTP server reads the file into memory as TFTP packets. This greatly speeds up the next request for the file.

• If a file has not been accessed for a while or the file in question has been updated, the file will be purged from memory.
