Note: Once a carrier is in data mode, Data Map becomes active for that carrier.  The 
Data Map serves as a routing table which maps incoming data to unique output 
carriers. 
To Configure the Data Map 
1 Navigate to the Maps page. 
2 In the tree menu, select Data Map. 
 
3 Configure the Stream Type to be MPEG for the desired carrier.  
Note: The Stream Type setting of the RFGW-1-D is dependent upon the rf-
channel configuration for the relevant controller modular-Cable in the CMTS. 
The following table lists the valid Stream Type settings for each of the rf-channel 
options in the uBR10K. 
rf-channel (CMTS) Stream Type (RFGW-1-D) 
udp-port MPEG 
depi-remote-id DOCSIS MPT w/o UDP 
In DOCSIS 2.0 Cisco Wideband operation, the eQAM device carries only 
wideband channels (non-primary DOCSIS).  For non-primary flows in DOCSIS 
2.0 Cisco Wideband operation, rf-channels are typically configured as udp-ports 
in the CMTS, and the valid Stream Type is MPEG.  For DOCSIS 3.0 Cisco 
Wideband operation, most operators are migrating to using depi-remote-id for 
all rf-channels.  This is done primarily to provide flexibility in defining primary 
and non-primary channels.  For flows defined as depi-remote-id in the CMTS, 
the valid Stream Type is DOCSIS MPT w/o UDP.

4 Select the Allowable Ingress Ports which receives the flows from the CMTS.  
The correct GbE port (independent mode) or port-pair (port-pair mode) will 
have its GbE port physical address (independent mode) or Video/Data IP 
address (port-pair mode) under the System/IP Network web view configured to 
match the eQAM IP address in the CMTS. 
5 Enter the Destination UDP Port for the input stream to be mapped out to the 
relevant RF Gateway 1 carrier.  The Destination UDP Port must match the udp-
port of the corresponding rf-channel in the CMTS. 
Notes:  
– Session ID will automatically set to N/A when Stream Type is MPEG. 
– For a given ingress port pair, the UDP port or session ID must be unique.

Status Monitoring 
Introduction 
This section provides information for status monitoring for video streams using the 
RF Gateway 1 web page. 
The RF Gateway 1 provides utilities for monitoring: 
 Input streams (i.e., stream type, status, IP, UDP, input bitrate) 
 Output streams (i.e., session ID, destination QAM channel)   
Monitoring 
To View Input Monitoring 
1 Navigate to the Monitor page. 
2 In the tree menu, select the Input/GbE port. 
Result: Input monitoring is shown for each GbE port.

Provisioning 
This section provides information for provisioning the RF Gateway 1 for M-CMTS 
operation. 
Prerequisite configurations:  
 GbE input ports, including Video/Data IP address 
 QAM outputs 
 Channel Application Mode  
Channel Application Mode 
To Verify Channel Application Mode 
1 Navigate to the Maps page. 
2 In the tree menu, select Map Configuration. 
Result: Channel Application Mode is revealed for each output carrier.  
Note: The correct setting is Data. 
  
Data Map Configuration 
For a specific output carrier, using the Maps/Data Map web page, the operator can 
configure: 
 Input Stream Type 
 Allowable ingress port or port-pair 
 Input stream DEPI Session ID port

The Data Map serves as a routing table which maps incoming data to unique output 
carriers.

3 Configure the Stream Type to be DOCSIS MPT without UDP for the desired 
carrier.  
Note: The Stream Type setting of the RFGW-1-D is dependent upon the rf-
channel configuration for the relevant controller modular-Cable in the CMTS. 
The following table lists the valid Stream Type settings for each of the rf-channel 
options in the uBR10K. 
rf-channel (CMTS) Stream Type (RFGW-1-D) 
udp-port MPEG 
depi-remote-id DOCSIS MPT w/o UDP 
In DOCSIS 2.0 Cisco Wideband operation, the eQAM device carries only 
wideband channels (non-primary DOCSIS).  For non-primary flows in DOCSIS 
2.0 Cisco Wideband operation, rf-channels are typically configured as udp-ports

Wideband operation, most operators are migrating to using depi-remote-id for

and non-primary channels.  For flows defined as depi-remote-id in the CMTS, 
the valid Stream Type is DOCSIS MPT w/o UDP.

4 Select the Allowable Ingress Ports which receives the flows from the CMTS.  
The correct GbE port (independent mode) or port pair (port-pair mode) will have 
its GbE port physical address (independent mode) or Video/Data IP address 
(port-pair mode) under the System/IP Network web view configured to match 
the eQAM IP address in the CMTS. 
5 Enter the Destination UDP Port for the input stream to be mapped out to the 
relevant RF Gateway 1 carrier.  The Destination UDP Port must match the udp-
port of the corresponding rf-channel in the CMTS. 
Notes:  
– Session ID will automatically set to N/A when Stream Type is MPEG. 
– For a given ingress port pair, the UDP port or session ID must be unique.
