3.0 Network Conguration
3.3 The DOCSIS Conguration File
3.3.2 Setting Modem Community Strings — DOCSIS 2.0+IPv6 Method
Set the modem community strings with the DOCSIS Conguration File for a IPv6 network by
including the following SNMP parameters:
TLV Type TLV Parameter Description Value
53 SNMPv1v2c Coexistence Conguration This object species the SNMPv1v2c Coexistence Access
Control conguration of the CM. This TLV creates entries in
SNMPv3 tables as specied in [DOCSIS OSSIv3.0]
Composite
53.1 SNMPv1v2c Community Name This sub-TLV species the Community Name (community
string) used in SNMP requests to the CM.
Text
e.g. AlphaRead
53.2 SNMPv1v2c Transport Address Access This sub-TLV species the Transport Address and Transport
Address Mask pair used by the CM to grant access to the
SNMP entity querying the CM.
Variable
53.2.1 SNMPv1v2c Transport Address Species the Transport Address to use in conjunction with
the Transport Address Mask used by the CM to grant access
to the SNMP entity querying the CM. Length is 6 bytes for
IPv4 and 18 bytes for IPv6. Two additional bytes are added
to the IP address length for the port number.
Transport Address
0.0.0.0/0
or
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/0
53.2.2 SNMPv1v2c Transport Address Mask Species the Transport Address Mask to use in conjunction
with the Transport Address used by the CM to grant access
to the SNMP entity querying the CM. Length is 6 bytes for
IPv4 and 18 bytes for IPv6. Two additional bytes are added
to the IP address length for the port number.
Transport Address Mask
0.0.0.0/0
or
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/0
53.3 SNMPv1v2c Access View Type Species the type of access to grant to the community name
of this TLV. If not specied, default read-only is used.
1=Read-only
2=Read-write
53.4 SNMPv1v2c Access View Name Species the name of the view that provides the access
indicated in sub-TLV SNMPv1v2c Access View Type.
String
e.g.docsisManagerView
MIB Parameter Object ID Description Value
docsDevNmAccessIP 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.2.x IP address of trap destination, e.g. NMS
server
e.g. 10.20.30.40
docsDevNmAccessIpMask 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.3.x Must be set to 255.255.255.255 per RFC 4639 255.255.255.255
docsDevNmAccessCommunity 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.4.x Community string used by NMS to query
Communications Module
alphanumeric string
docsDevNmAccessControl 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.5.x Level of SNMP access to DSM3 Series from
IP address specied in
docsDevNmAccessIpMask
4=Read/Only plus Trap
5=Read/Write plus Trap
6=Trap only, no SNMP access
docsDevNmAccessInterfaces 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.6.x Species the set of interfaces from which
requests from this NMS will be accepted
0x40 : Cable interface (typical)
0x80 : Ethernet interface
0xC0 or 0x00 : Both interfaces
docsDevNmAccessStatus 1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.2.1.7.x Controls and reects the status of rows in
this table
