Troubleshooting Tips for the Cisco uBR904 Cable Modem 1
List of Terms
Prerequisites
Cisco IOS Release 11.3(4)NA or later must be running inside the cable modem. Enter the show
version EXEC command to display the software version level.
Supported MIBs and RFCs
The Cisco uBR904 cable modem supports the following:
• Radio Frequency Interface Specification—This specification is developed by the Multimedia
Cable Network System (MCNS) corsortium. It defines the radio-frequency interface
specification for high-speed data-over-cable systems.
• Cisco Standard MIBs—The Cisco Standard MIBs consist of CiscoWorks. CiscoWorks is the
network management program for planning, troubleshooting, and monitoring Cisco
internetworks. CiscoWorks uses SNMP protocols to monitor all SNMP devices.
— For more information about CiscoWorks on CCO, follow this path:
Products & Ordering: Cisco Products: Network Management: CiscoWorks
— For more information about CiscoWorks on the Documentation CD-ROM, follow this path:
Cisco Product Documentation: Network Management: CiscoWorks
• RF Interface MIB—The Radio Frequency Interface (RFI) MIB is specific to cable Data Over
Cable Interface Specification (DOCSIS) implementations. The RIF MIB provides an interface
that permits management of the Cisco uBR904 cable modem over the cable or Ethernet interface.
Using SNMP management applications, this MIB allows access to statistics such as MAC, driver
configuration, and counters through its interface.
• Cable Device MIB—The Cable Device MIB records statistics related to the configuration and
status of the Cisco uBR904 cable modem. Statistics include an events log and device status. The
Cable Device MIB is very similar to the RFI MIB in that both allow access to statistics; they are
different in that the Cable Device MIB reports statistics on the Cisco uBR904 cable modem,
while the RFI MIB reports statistics on the radio frequency transmissions over the cable
television line.

Table 1
Cable Modem Initialization Sequences and Events
Sequence
1
Event
Description
Scan for a downstream channel and
establish synchronization with the
headend Cisco uBR7246.
The cable modem acquires a downstream channel from the
headend, saves the last operational frequency in non-volatile
memory, and tries to reacquire the saved downstream
channel the next time a request is made.
An ideal downstream signal is one that synchronizes QAM
symbol timing, FEC framing, MPEG packetization, and
recognizes downstream sync MAC layer messages.
2
Obtain upsteam channel parameters.
The cable modem waits for an upstream channel descriptor
messages (UCD) from the headend Cisco uBR7246. This is
done to retrieve transmission parameters for the upstream
channel.
3
4
Start ranging for power adjustments.
Establish IP connectivity.
The ranging process adjusts cable modem’s transmit power.
The cable modem performs ranging in stages, ranging state
1 and ranging state 2.
The cable modem invokes DHCP requests to obtain an IP
address, which is needed for IP connectivity. The DHCP
request also includes the name of a file that contains
additional configuration parameters, the TFTP server’s
address, and the Time of Day (TOD) server’s address.
5
Establish the time of day.
The Cisco uBR904 cable modem accesses the TOD server
for the current date and time, which is used to create time
stamps for logged events (such as those displayed in the
MAC log file).
6
7
Establish security.
Keys for privacy are exchanged between the cable modem
and the CMTS (the Cisco uBR7246 cable router).
Transfer operational parameters.
After the DHCP and security operations are successful, the
cable modem downloads operational parameters from a
configuration file stored on a cable company’s TFTP server.
8
Perform registration.
The cable modem registers with the headend
Cisco uBR7246. The cable modem is authorized to forward
traffic into the cable network after the cable modem is
initialized, authenticated, and configured.
Note The Cisco uBR904 cable modem supports baseline
privacy in Cisco IOS Release 11.3(5)NA and later.
9
Comply with baseline privacy.
Link level encryption keys are exchanged between the
headend and the cable modem.
10
Enter the operational maintenance
state.
As soon as the cable modem is completely up and running,
it enters operational maintenance state.
Connect to the Cable Modem
Telnet to the IP address assigned to the cable interface or Ethernet interface. If the interface is not
up, you need to access the Cisco IOS software via the RJ-45 console port, which is a physical port
on the back of the cable modem.
Because the MAC log file only holds a snapshot of 1023 entries at a time, you should try to display
the cable modem’s log file within 5 minutes of when the reset or problem occurs.

Troubleshooting Tips
Display the Cable Modem’s MAC Log File
A MAC layer circular log file is inside the cable modem. This file contains a history of log messages,
such as state event activities and timestamps, which are used for troubleshooting purposes. This log
file contains the most valuable information for a cable technician or engineer to debug the cable
interface.
The MAC log file is displayed by entering the show controller cable-modem 0 mac log EXEC
command.
The most useful display fields in this log file are the reported state changes. These fields are preceded
by the message CMAC_LOG_STATE_CHANGE. These fields show how the cable modem progresses
through the various processes involved in establishing communication with the CMTS and
registration. The maintenance_stateis the normal operational state, and the
wait_for_link_up_stateis the normal state when the interface is shutdown.
Here is the normal progression of states as displayed by the MAC log:
wait_for_link_up_state
ds_channel_scanning_state
wait_ucd_state
wait_map_state
ranging_1_state
ranging_2_state
dhcp_state
establish_tod_state
security_association_state
configuration_file_state
registration_state
establish_privacy_state
maintenance_state
Here is what an example MAC log file looks like when the cable modem interface successfully
comes up and registers with the cable network. The output you see is directly related to the messages
that are exchanged between the cable modem and the CMTS (the Cisco uBR7246).

The following sample log file is organized by chronological sequence event. Sample comments are
also included.
Event 1—Wait for the Link to Come Up
The MAC layer informs the cable modem’s drivers that it needs to reset. This is the first event that
happens after the modem powers up and begins initialization. The fields LINK_DOWNand LINK_UPare
similar to a shut and no shut on a standard Cisco interface.

Event 2—Scan for a Downstream Channel then Synchronize
Different geographical regions and different cable plants use different frequency bands. The
Cisco uBR904 cable modem uses a built-in default frequency scanning feature to address this issue.
After the cable modem finds a successful downstream frequency channel, it saves the channel to
NVRAM. The cable modem recalls this value the next time it needs to synchronize its frequency.
The field CMAC_LOG_WILL_SEARCH_DS_FREQUENCY_BANDtells you what frequency the cable modem
will scan for. The field CMAC_LOG_WILL_SEARCH_SAVED_DS_FREQUENCYtells you the frequency the
cable modem locked onto and saved to NVRAM (for future recall). The field
CMAC_LOG_DS_64QAM_LOCK_ACQUIREDcommunicates the same information. The field
CMAC_LOG_DS_CHANNEL_SCAN_COMPLETEDindicates that the scanning and synchronization was
successful.

A frequency band is a group of adjacent channels. These bands are numbered from 88 to 99. Each
band has starting and ending digital carrier frequencies and a 6 MHz step size. For example, a search
of EIA channels 95-97 is specified using band 89. The starting frequency is 93 Mhz, the ending
frequency is 105 Mhz.
The cable modem’s default frequency bands correspond to the North American EIA CATV channel
plan for 6 MHz channel slots between 90 MHz and 858 MHz. For example, EIA channel 95 occupies
the slot 90-96 MHz. The digital carrier frequency is specified as the center frequency of 93 MHz.
Channel 95 is usually specified using the analog video carrier frequency of 91.25 Mhz, which lies
1.75 Mhz below the center of the slot.
The search table is arranged so that the first frequencies tried are above 450 Mhz. Because many
CATV systems have been upgraded from 450 MHz to 750 MHz coaxial cable, digital channels have
a high chance of being assigned in the new spectrum. The search table omits channels below 90 MHz
and above 860 MHz since the DOCSIS specification does not mandate their coverage.
Some CATV systems use alternative frequency plans such as the IRC (Incrementally Related
Carrier) and HRC (Harmonically Related Carrier) plans. Most of the IRC channel slots overlap the
EIA plan. The HRC plan is not supported by Cisco’s cable modems since so few cable plants are
using this plan.

Event 5—Establish IP Connectivity
After ranging is complete, the cable interface on the cable modem is up. Now the cable modem
accesses a remote DHCP server to get an IP address. The DHCP request also includes the name of
a file that contains additional configuration parameters, the TFTP server’s address, and the Time of
Day (TOD) server’s address.
The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_ASSIGNED_IP_ADDRESSindicates the IP address assigned from the DHCP
server to the cable modem interface. The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_TFTP_SERVER_ADDRESSmarks the
TFTP server’s address. The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_TOD_SERVER_ADDRESS indicates the time of day
server’s address. The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_CONFIG_FILE_NAMEshows the filename containing the
transmission parameters. The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_COMPLETEshows that all the IP connectivity was
a success.

Event 6—Establish the Time of Day
The Cisco uBR904 cable modem accesses the Time of Day server for the current date and time,
which is used to create time stamps for logged events. The field CMAC_LOG_TOD_COMPLETE indicates
a successful time of day sequence.

Event 7—Establish Security
The cable modem establishes a security association. The security_association_stateis normally
bypassed since “full security” as defined by MCNS DOCSIS is not supported.
“Full security” was a request made by MSOs for a very strong authorization and authentication
check by the CMTS. This request was not granted by cable modem manufacturers. Cisco fully
supports baseline privacy, which protects user’s data from getting “sniffed” on the cable network.

Event 8—Transfer Operational Parameters
After the DHCP and security operations are successful, the cable modem downloads operational
parameters from a cable company’s TFTP server. These parameters are transferred via a
configuration file. The field CMAC_LOG_DHCP_CONFIG_FILE_NAMEshows the filename containing the
transmission parameters.

Event 9—Perform Registration
The cable modem registers with the headend Cisco uBR7246. After the cable modem is initialized,
authenticated, and configured, the cable modem is authorized to forward traffic into the cable
network. A successful registration is indicated by the field CMAC_LOG_REGISTRATION_OK.

Event 10—Comply with Baseline Privacy
Keys for baseline privacy are exchanged between the cable modem and the CMTS (the
Cisco uBR7246 cable router). During this event, a link level encryption is performed so that a user’s
data cannot be “sniffed” by anyone else who is on the cable network.
Here is a trace that shows baseline privacy enabled. The key management protocol is responsible for
exchanging 2 types of keys: KEKs and TEKs. The KEK (key exchange key, also referred to as the
authorization key) is used by the headend CMTS to encrypt TEKs (traffic encryption keys) it sends
to the cable modem. The TEKs are used to encrypt/decrypt the data. There is a TEK for each SID
configured to use privacy.

Command Reference
show controller cable-modem mac
To show detailed MAC layer information for a cable modem, enter the show cable controller
cable-modem number mac Privileged EXEC command.
show controller cable-modem number mac [errors | hardware | log | resets | state]
Syntax Description
number
The controller number inside the cable modem.
errors
(Optional) Displays a log of the error events that are reported to
SNMP. This keyword gives you a way of looking at the error
events without using a MIB.
hardware
log
(Optional) Displays all MAC hardware registers.
(Optional) Displays a history of MAC log messages, up to 1023
entries. This is the same output that is displayed when the
debug cable mac log command is entered.
resets
state
(Optional) Extracts all the reset causes out of the MAC log file
and summarizes them into a mini report.
(Optional) Displays a summary of the MAC state.
Command Mode
Privileged EXEC
Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.3 NA.
MAC log messages are written to a circular log file even when debugging is not turned on. These
messages include timestamps, events, and information pertinent to these events. Enter the show
controller cable-modem number mac log command to view MAC log messages.
If the cable modem interface fails to come up or resets periodically, the MAC log will capture what
happened. For example, if an address is not obtained from the DHCP server, an error is logged,
initialization starts over, and the cable modem scans for a downstream frequency.
The most useful keywords for troubleshooting a cable modem are log, errors, and resets. See
Release 11.3(4)NA

Sample Display 4
This example display for the show controller cable-modem 0 mac hardware command shows the
detailed configuration of the interface driver and MAC layer hardware. The most interesting bit is
the station address (hardware address). The rest of the display is only of use to a software engineer.
The MIB statistics reflect the MAC hardware counters for various events, but these counters are
typically reset every few seconds, so their contents are not accurate in this display.

Sample Display 5
The show controller cable-modem 0 mac state command summarizes the state of the cable MAC
layer. If the cable MAC layer is in the wait_for_link_up_state, the information shown in the
display corresponds to the last time the interface was up. This allows useful information to be
acquired from this display even though the modem has not been able to range and register. The
normal operational state of the interface is the maintenance_state.

debug cable-modem bridge
debug cable-modem bridge
Use the debug cable-modem bridge Privileged EXEC command to debug bridge filter processing
information on a cable modem. The no form of this command turns debugging messages off.
[no] debug cable-modem bridge
Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.3 NA.
When the interface is down, all bridge table entries learned on the Ethernet interface are set to discard
because traffic is not bridged until the cable interface has completed initialization. After the interface
is completely up (the line protocol), bridge table entries learned on the Ethernet interface program
the cable’s MAC data filters. The cable MAC hardware filters out any received packets whose
addresses, are not in the filters. In this way, the cable interface only receives packets addressed to its
own MAC address or an address it has learned on the Ethernet interface.

Debug Commands
debug cable-modem mac
Use the debug cable-modem mac Privileged EXEC command to troubleshoot the cable modem
MAC layer. The no form of this command turns debugging messages off.
[no] debug cable-modem mac {log [verbose] | messages}
Syntax Description
log
Realtime MAC log display.
verbose
messages
(Optional) Displays periodic MAC layer events, such as ranging.
MAC layer management messages.
Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.3 NA.
Of all the available debug cable modem commands, the most useful is debug cable-modem mac
log.
Mac log messages are written to a circular log file even when debugging is not turned on. These
messages include timestamps, events, and information pertinent to these events. Enter the debug
cable-modem mac log command to view Mac log messages. If you want to view this information
without entering debug mode, enter the show controller cable-modem number mac log command.
The same information is displayed by both commands.
If the cable modem interface fails to come up or resets periodically, the Mac log will show what
happened. For example, if an address is not obtained from the DHCP server, an error is logged,
initialization starts over, and the cable modem scans for a downstream frequency. The debug
cable-modem mac log command displays the log from oldest entry to newest entry.
After initial ranging is successful (dhcp_state has been reached), further RNG-REQ/RNG-RSP
messages and watchdog timer entries are suppressed from output, unless the verbose keyword suffix
is used. For example, the debug cable-modem mac log verbose command is entered. Note that
CMAC_LOG_WATCHDOG_TIMERentries while in the maintenance_state are normal when using the
verbose keyword.
Sample Displays
command. After the debug command is entered, the fields of the output are: the date, local time,
seconds since bootup, the log message, and in some cases a parameter that gives more detail about
the log entry.
The line “0 events dropped due to lack of a chunk” at the end of a display indicates that no
log entries were discarded due to a temporary lack of memory. This means the log is accurate and
reliable.

This command causes received cable MAC management messages to be displayed in a verbose
format. The messages that are displayed are UCD, MAP, RNG-RSP, REG-RSP and UCC. In
addition, transmitted REG-REQs are displayed in hex dump format. The output from this command
is very verbose and is usually not needed for normal interface debugging. The command is most
useful when attempting to attach a cable modem to an uncertified CMTS. For a description of the
displayed fields of each message, refer to the MCNS DOCSIS RFI spec, v1.0.
