| mtd9 | 029e0000 | 00020000  | "rootfs"         |


This ONT supports dual boot, as visible from the presence of `kernel1` and `kernel2`, which contain the rootfs.
The boot image can be swapped with the following command:

```sh
upgradetest switchver X
```

Where `X` can be `0/1` based on the image you want to boot.


You can also clone the currently running image into other slot using this command:

```sh
syn_version
```

# Use
{% include alert.html content="Commands have been tested on V2 HW rev. on OpenFiber firmwares" alert="Note"  icon="svg-info" color="blue" %}

## Enable Telnet
{% include alert.html content="This is an external script ([ZTE Telnet enabled](https://github.com/douniwan5788/zte_modem_tools)), so use it at your own risk! Credential doesn't survive at reboot!" alert="Note"  icon="svg-info" color="blue" %}

```sh
python3 zte_factroymode.py --user admin --pass admin --ip 192.168.1.1 --port 80 telnet open
```

You should get this output and credentials to login over telnet:

```sh
trying  user:"admin" pass:"admin"
reset facTelnetSteps:
reset OK!

facStep 1:
OK!

facStep 2:
OK!

facStep 3:
OK!

facStep 4:
OK!

facStep 5:
OK!

done
Username: 2W3iqFVt

```

## Enable console redirection

To see omcidebug messages on Telnet you need to execute this command (just the first time of each connection):

```sh
redir printf
```

# GPON ONU status

## Get the operational status of the ONU

To see the connection state use the following command:
```
gpontest -gstate
```
`[gpontest] gpon state is [O5]` for O5 state

## Get information of the OLT vendor

```sh
sendcmd 132 omcidebug showmedata 131
```

This command will print out the result like this one:

```sh

         ME CLASS: 131
         DB NAME: olt_g, DBHandle: 32

```

## Querying a particular OMCI ME

```sh
sendcmd 132 omcidebug showmedata ID_MIB (eg. 7 for Firmware version)
```

This command will print out a result like this one:

```sh

# GPON/OMCI settings

## Setting ONU GPON Serial Number

{% include alert.html content="You have to change S/N and the VID. 2176 is for the VID (first 4 letters of the S/N) and 2177 is for the last 8 digits of the S/N" alert="Note"  icon="svg-info" color="blue" %}
```sh
setmac 1 2176 ZTEG
setmac 1 2177 AABBCCDD
```

## Setting ONU GPON PLOAM password

{% include alert.html content="The PLOAM password is stored in the ASCII format." alert="Note"  icon="svg-info" color="blue" %}
This can be done easily via web ui. If you prefer to do it via the shell use:
```sh
setmac 1 2181 1234567890
setmac 1 2178 1234567890
```

# Advanced settings

## Backup ONT Paritions for HW\SW Version Mod

This step is suggested if you want to replace firmware on your ONT to spoof HW and SW version:

Needed tools:

- Linux VM or WSL with Python >3.3
- [ZTE Telnet enabled](https://github.com/douniwan5788/zte_modem_tools)
- TFTP server

First step is to login over telnet with `zte_factroymode.py` then execute ALL this command for a full backup:

**Go to `/tmp` folder to create tmp files**

```sh
cd /tmp
```

**Dump and transfer all mtd **

Here 192.168.1.2 is the IP of the machine running the TFTP server, change it as needed

```sh
cat /dev/mtd1 > u-boot.bin && tftp -l u-boot.bin -r u-boot.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm u-boot.bin
cat /dev/mtd2 > others.bin && tftp -l others.bin -r others.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm others.bin
cat /dev/mtd3 > parameter_tags.bin && tftp -l parameter_tags.bin -r parameter_tags.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm parameter_tags.bin
cat /dev/mtd4 > wlan.bin && tftp -l wlan.bin -r wlan.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm wlan.bin
cat /dev/mtd5 > usercfg.bin && tftp -l usercfg.bin -r usercfg.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm usercfg.bin
cat /dev/mtd6 > middle.bin && tftp -l middle.bin -r middle.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm middle.bin
cat /dev/mtd7 > kernel1.bin && tftp -l kernel1.bin -r kernel1.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm kernel1.bin
cat /dev/mtd8 > kernel2.bin && tftp -l kernel2.bin -r kernel2.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm kernel2.bin
cat /dev/mtd9 > rootfs.bin && tftp -l rootfs.bin -r rootfs.bin -p 192.168.1.2 && rm rootfs.bin

```

## Change region code

{% include alert.html content="Be aware that changing the region code may break features such as PPPoE depending on your ISP" alert="Note"  icon="svg-info" color="blue" %}

ZTE has created various region codes that load default values based on the local ISP. This configuration can be changed using this command:

```sh
upgradetest sfactoryconf X
```

Where X is the number of supported regioncode into file `/etc/init.d/regioncode`, here is an example from OpenFiber `V2.0.10P7N2` firmware:

```sh
# cat /etc/init.d/regioncode
19:Turkey
65:FTOrange
116:Tescali
139:Multilaser
188:HollandKpnSfu
198:Manufacture
2010:Cetin
```

# Random notes
- F2801S reads the software version exposed thru gpon_omci deamon from each kernel partition's header, so only way to spoof this parameter is to change the version in the header and recalculate CRC, otherwise bootloader refuse to load image
