Verify the Installation and Services
Verify the Installation
Check LED states to verify Gateway status (Section 5.2). Services are not available until the Gateway is ranged and provisioned in the network. If services must be verified at the time of installation, refer to Section for additional instructions.
Activating the Gateway
Once the Gateway installation is complete, follow the procedure below for verifying Gateway status. The figures below show the typical status LED display after the Gateway boot sequence is complete.
Gateway has not yet been provisioned:
MoCa2.5 has already been provisioned:
- Verify that the PWR LED lights are green indicating that local power level is good.
- Verify that the NET LED lights green, indicating that the Gateway interface is operating normally.
- The Gateway is placed into service remotely through the OLT. Services to the Gateway are likely wise provisioned and turned up remotely through the MoCa2.5 network.
- If the NET LED lights green, indicating that the Gateway is communicating with the MoCa2.5 network, no further action is necessary and you can proceed to Verifying Services.
Verifying Services
Follow local practices to connect to each active service port in the Gateway to confirm service activation.
- If Ethernet service is included in this installation, confirm that data is being received and transmitted normally. The LAN LED will be flashed during data transmission.
- If WLAN service is included in this installation, confirm that data is being received and transmitted on the WLAN interface. Verify the WLAN LED is green when the WLAN is connected.
