saCmForceDualscan

Module: SA-CM-MIB

OID (symbolic): SA-CM-MIB::saCmForceDualscan

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1429.77.1.4.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: The MIB will choose whether to force dualscan operation for the device. Dualscan refers to the CM ability to automatically scan for both 6MHz and 8MHz carriers. 0 : Will not force dualscan. In this case, the factory configuration for dualscan will take effect. *note: Factory Dualscan configuration is typically only enabled for EPC products. 1 : Will force dualscan to be enabled. In this case, dualscan will be enabled regardless of the factory setting. This MIB value will be stored to NonVolatile memory(NVM) and will persist across reboots. If the MIB is set via the config file, the CM will store the new setting and begin using it on next reboot. Removing the setting from the config file will not change the value stored in NVM the CM will continue to operate using the previously stored value. However, if an SNMP SET is used to modify the value, then the CM will not use the new setting until the next reboot occurs or is commanded. A factory reset of the CM will set the stored value back to 0. 2 : *Docsis1 mode will only allow the modem to lock Annex B (6MHz) channels and will ignore all Annex A (8MHz) channels. 3 : *EuroDocsis mode will only allow the modem to lock Annex A (8MHz) channesl and will ignore all Annex B (6 MHz)channels. *Feature available upon request for dualscan capable modems.

What is saCmForceDualscan?

Controls whether the modem is forced to scan for both 6MHz (DOCSIS Annex B) and 8MHz (EuroDOCSIS Annex A) downstream carriers: useFactorySetting(0) leaves the factory default in place, enable(1) forces dualscan on regardless of factory setting, docsis1(2) restricts locking to Annex B channels only, and euroDocsis(3) restricts locking to Annex A channels only; the value is stored in non-volatile memory and an SNMP SET only takes effect after the next reboot.
