Default Device Settings
Inserted inside the shipping carton of each 812G GigaHub, the inventory label (x2) provides necessary product information that may be attached to a work order or applied to the exterior of the device for future reference.
· ONU MAC address · Default IP address of the home gateway router (needed at initial turn-
up) · Default login credentials (User Name/Password)
Getting Started
To turn up network services on the 812G GigaHub, two options are available: 1. Connect an active optical fiber to the 812G GigaHub’s bulkhead fitting,
power the unit on, and allow the network OLT (for example, a Calix E7) to discover the device as an unprovisioned ONT. At the OLT, the network administrator will provision the GigaHub and provide operational parameters remotely. 2. With the fiber disconnected, access the Smart Activate or Voice Activate application included with the 812G and then enter the Registration ID into the application. With the Registration ID having previously been entered at the OLT, once the fiber is connected, the GigaHub will come up as a provisioned ONT based on the pre-provisioning that was completed for that Registration ID.
