ADSG Broadcast Tunnel Setup 
The eCM establishes the Cisco out-of-band (OOB) tunnels, the SCTE-65 SI tunnel, 
and SCTE-18 EAS tunnel. You can use CLI diag page 4.3 to verify the setup of these 
ADSG broadcast tunnels, as shown in the following example. 
 
Other tunnels may be specified in the DCD, but these are not processed. 
Troubleshooting 
If either the SCTE-65 SI tunnel or the SCTE-18 EAS tunnel is not present, verify with 
the CMTS administrator that the DCD is correct. 
Upstream Ranging 
After the OOB tunnels are set up, the eCM initiates registration with the CMTS and 
performs reverse path ranging to establish the correct transmit power level. 
The upstream power level reported in CLI is 13.7 dB higher than the level at Port 1 
because it is measured internally before attenuation. For example, a CLI reported 
power level of 49 dBmV would imply a power level of (49 - 13.7 =) 35.3 dBmV 
measurable at Port 1.
