How to connect via SSH to GPON SPF Module

Hardware MikroTik hardware general
1

Hi,

I have bought a GPON SFP module (https://www.fs.com/de-en/products/133619.html), with the goal to eliminate the Huawei HG8010G ONT which is currently between my fiber and my Mikrotik.

I would like to connect with it via SSH, so i can change the Mac and vendor settings.
But i’m not able to make a connection to it, how can i achieve this?

I do see that the SFP is recognized:

interface/ethernet/monitor “Gateway_SFP+”
;;; SFP+
name: Gateway_SFP+
status: no-link
auto-negotiation: disabled
sfp-module-present: yes
sfp-rx-loss: yes
sfp-tx-fault: no
sfp-type: SFP-or-SFP+
sfp-connector-type: SC
sfp-link-length-sm: 20km
sfp-vendor-name: FS
sfp-vendor-part-number: GPON-ONU-34-20BI
sfp-vendor-revision: 01
sfp-vendor-serial: G2230326208
sfp-manufacturing-date: 22-09-06
sfp-wavelength: 1310nm
sfp-temperature: 49C
sfp-supply-voltage: 3.334V
sfp-tx-bias-current: 9mA
sfp-tx-power: -40dBm
sfp-rx-power: -40dBm
eeprom-checksum: good

and i have given it an IP, which is in the same network:

ip/address/print

ADDRESS NETWORK INTERFACE

;;; Local
0 10.0.0.1/16 10.0.0.0 bridge-local
4 10.0.0.20/32 10.0.0.0 Gateway_SFP+

But when i try to connect to it, i receive an connection refused.

ssh ONTUSER@10.0.0.20
ssh: connect to host 10.0.0.20 port 22: Connection refused

What do i need to do, to make connect to the GPON SFP module, so i can change the settings?

The SFP web interface is at 192.168.1.10

Thanks for the tip.
i have put the SPF in a temp router to play with it.

I have created a 192.168.1.0/24 network and added the SFP to 192.168.1.15/24

ip/address/print
Flags: X, D - DYNAMIC
Columns: ADDRESS, NETWORK, INTERFACE

ADDRESS NETWORK INTERFACE

0 192.168.1.1/24 192.168.1.0 LAN-bridge
3 192.168.1.15/24 192.168.1.0 sfp1

I can ping the SPF
ping 192.168.1.15
SEQ HOST SIZE TTL TIME STATUS
0 192.168.1.15 56 64 396us

ssh does not work, like before:
ssh 192.168.1.15
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.15 port 22: Connection refused

but i do not see anything on 192.168.1.10

ping 192.168.1.10
SEQ HOST SIZE TTL TIME STATUS
0 192.168.1.10 timeout

I did not root the GPON, i assumed i could just login into it with ONTUSER/7sp!lwUBz1. via ssh.
I have read that i need to have the fiber running (link-ok, rate 1Gbps) before it’s exposed, is that correct?

It varies depending on the model but usually it may be necessary to connect a fiber optic cable.
https://github.com/hwti/G-010S-A/issues/24

Check the status of the sfp1 interface. If the RX Lose box is checked, then the SFP will not respond to 192.168.1.10 pings.
Besides, an Ethernet interface on SFP “Sticks” like GPON-ONU-34-20BI, G-010S-A, MA5671A is usually UP after 70-90 seconds.

ah, the Rx Loss is indeed checked, but i’m unable to uncheck it, because it’s grayed out.

How can i uncheck this?

6

The Rx Loss field should be clear with the SFP fully up and the fiber connected. Is the firmware the latest? Mikrotik has made many improvements in the last year in how GPON SFPs are detected.
If that doesn’t work a cheap TP-Link MC220L or similar media converter is proven to work without much hassle.

It is a read-only value which reports the status from the SFP, you can’t uncheck it. For a GPON SFP which only provide a management interface when active you have to connect it to the fibre.

Thanks, today my provider hooked me up so i had a valid fiber connection, this time it worked!

This is what i did to use the SFP instead of the ONU

Addresses → Add New → Interface SFP with address 192.168.1.15/24
tools → telnet → ssh ONTUSER@192.168.1.10 password is 7sp!lwUBz1

I’m trying similar thing.

ISP ONT : HG8010Hv6
SFP ONT: Nokia G-010S-A
CCR1009

And I just can’t get Link up fiber connected or not. I did the Pin6 MOD. Tried Auto-Neg with 1G and 2.5G
I’m starting to suspect faulty HW, but is there anything else to try?

dear madcat
what sfp_i2c -i 2 -s “0001” stand for ? coz I have seam issue
