10、ogies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecomm
11、unication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas
12、 of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC.

Emphasis is placed on test cases that address the G-PON physical layer (ITU-T G.984.2), the TC layer (ITU-T G.984
23、.3) and low-level components of the management layer (ITU-T G.984.4). In this supplement, the OLT is regarded as the baseline equipment, against which the ONU is evaluated. This is not to be understood as an assertion that the OLT is necessarily right in the event of incompatibility, merely to refle
24、ct the reality that a network operator is likely to have OLTs in place and is interested in qualifying additional ONUs for use on these OLTs. From this perspective, the unit under test is an ONU. Interoperability testing is conducted by or on behalf of four interests: the OLT vendor, the ONU vendor,
25、 one or more network operators who are potential customers, and possibly a third-party testing lab. As a preliminary to an interoperability testing campaign, all interests are expected to agree on features, functions and configurations. Only the features supported by both OLT and ONU need be tested
26、but all test cases need to be addressed with either a test result or an indication why there is no result (not supported, etc.). As to test configurations, the vendors may be requested to supply equipment (of a given vintage), and the network operator may be interested in testing in the presence of
27、other ONU makes and models, or with particular ODN characteristics. The testing lab needs to have the necessary power, space, test equipment and expertise for the agreed campaign. In this supplement, the manufacturers are referred to as the OLT vendor and the ONU vendor respectively, while tests are
28、 deemed to be conducted by a test operator. The term ONU includes ONTs as well, and the term OLT includes the entire network element at the head end of the PON, not just the G.984 interface. G series Supplement 46 (05/2009) 1 Supplement 46 to ITU-T G-series Recommendations G-PON interoperability tes
29、t plan between optical line terminations and optical network units 1 Scope This clause describes the scope of G-PON interoperability testing. It is important to understand what an interoperability test plan is not, as well as what it is. An interoperability test project includes only features and ca
30、pabilities that are claimed to be supported by both the OLT and the ONU. To apply a single interoperability test plan to all equipment combinations, the test report lists features and capabilities that are not claimed to be supported by one or both of the equipments, but tests of such cases are not
31、to be regarded as failures. The reader of the test report determines the importance of a not-supported feature. An interoperability test plan evaluates the ability of an OLT and an ONU to deliver subscriber services. Services are standardized to a greater or lesser extent; the definition of a DS1 le
32、aves very little to the imagination. However, services frequently have performance aspects that are more suitable for characterization than for Pass/fail results. An example might be the sustainable throughput of an Ethernet port or the echo performance of a voice channel. This supplement is based o
33、n ITU-T G.984.x-series of Recommendations and other standards. It expects that deviations from standards be recorded in the test results. Many test cases also characterize the quality or performance of service delivery. Compliance with standards is neither wholly necessary nor sufficient to guarante
34、e that an OLT-ONU combination is suitable for a network providers needs. An interoperability test plan confirms that a given ONU functions properly when installed on an ODN with other ONUs. In general, the other ONUs can differ arbitrarily in make, model and capability from the ONU under test. The v
35、endors and the test lab should agree in advance on a representative population of ONUs. An interoperability test plan verifies that an ONU can be fully managed through the OLT, within the scope of capabilities it claims to support. This includes all pertinent FCAPS functions, for example initializat
36、ion, provisioning, testing, fault isolation and maintenance, PM, backup, restoration and software upgrade. An interoperability test plan is not a gauge of standards compliance. A proprietary combination of OLT and ONU could well be completely interoperable. However, the standards form the basis of t
37、he interoperability test plan, in the expectation that they will closely describe most OLTs and ONUs. An interoperability test plan assumes a black-box view of the OLT-ONU combination. Information visible only through mechanisms such as debug ports is not valid as a test criterion. From a black-box
38、perspective, some tests are clearly not possible, for example the ability for the OLT to controllably inject faults such as bit errors or send invalid PLOAM messages. Some of the test cases are nevertheless written to use such capabilities, if they exist. If the equipments do not expose such special
39、ized mechanisms, it may be simply impossible to perform the test cases, and there is to be no implication that somehow it should have been possible. Ancillary equipment such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or a DSL modem is not intrinsically within the scope of an OLT-ONU interoperability t
40、est plan. However, if a vendor always recommends a given ancillary equipment for use with an ONU or OLT, the ancillary equipment can be included by agreement. The test is not intended to resolve to a level as to isolate the operability of ancillary equipment or the OLT-ONU. With the exception of str
41、ess testing, in which the purpose of the test case is to oversubscribe resources of the network under test, any test case can fail if the test causes disruption to services that are not part of the test case. For the purpose of interoperability testing, it is assumed that all testing is performed wi
42、th the temperature in the range of 60 to 80F (16 to 27C) and the relative humidity in the range of 20% to 60%. If testing is performed under different environmental conditions, then any such deviations should be clearly noted in the resulting test report. If different environmental conditions are re
43、quired for a specific test case within this supplement, then these conditions will be explicitly stated in the test case. 2 G series Supplement 46 (05/2009) 2 Unlabelled This clause intentionally left blank. 3 Interoperability guidelines 3.1 Overview In preparation for interoperability test cycles,
44、this clause provides ONU and OLT vendors with implementation guidelines created to enable multi-vendor interoperability. Interoperability testing between the ONU and OLT uses the ITU-T G.984.x-series Recommendations as the guidelines for all tests. This clause identifies the functionality to be impl
45、emented based on these specifications. Both vendors should complete PICS documents for ITU-T G.984.2, ITU-T G.984.3 and ITU-T G.984.4 as a first step in planning the test campaign. 3.2 PON initialization and management 3.2.1 PON initialization An ONU must be able to successfully initialize with the
46、OLT using the activation method described in ITU-T G.984.3. 3.2.2 Support of equipment management entities The ONU/OLT should support OMCI and the managed entities defined in ITU-T G.984.4. The test plan assumes that OMCI is supported. 3.2.3 Downstream encryption Downstream encryption is an integral
47、 part of the security of the system. It is evaluated to verify that it does not adversely affect service. 4 Test configuration and equipment 4.1 Network configuration Figure 1 shows the test configuration for the interoperability testing of the OLT and ONU. While data service interoperability is out
48、 of scope for this test plan, several test cases do rely on the ability to establish a basic data traffic flow between the OLT and ONU. The OLT and ONU vendors will be expected to work together to support this pre-condition. Data test sets should be available for each side of the network. Temperatur
49、e and humidity within the laboratory work spaces should be monitored using calibrated temperature and humidity indicators, and should be recorded throughout the testing.
