# Tutorial: Extracting PLOAM Password from Vodafone Sercomm FG824CD and Configuring Nokia G-010G-P ONT

## Prerequisites
- Vodafone Sercomm FG824CD router (common in Spain).
- Compatible third-party ONT (e.g., Nokia G-010G-P).
- Extracted GPON parameters (PLOAM, serial, vendor ID, etc.)—use debug logs or Wireshark.
- Separate router for PPPoE (e.g., OpenWRT device).
- Ethernet cables and fiber connector (SC/APC).
- Perform on your own equipment; risk of temporary outage.

## Step 1: Extract PLOAM and GPON Parameters from Sercomm FG824CD
1. Connect PC to router via Ethernet.
2. Access http://192.168.0.1; log in with credentials (e.g., "vodafone"/"PA22W012D, check out the sticker below router).
3. Elevate to admin: Browser dev tools (F12 > Sources > mainFunctions.js). Breakpoint at `usermode` line, refresh, modify to `data[7] = { usermode: "admin" };`, resume.
4. Go to **Diagnostic Unit > GPON Debug**. Enable "Log to File".
5. Click "Down Ddb", disconnect fiber 10-20s, reconnect, wait for PON sync, click "Down Ddb" again.
6. Download log (e.g., ddb.bin or .log).
7. Open in text/hex editor (e.g., Notepad++ or HxD). Search for "ONU info" or "PASSWD".
8. Extract:
   - PLOAM Password: 10-char alphanumeric (e.g., "XXXXXXXXXX") or hex.
   - Serial Number (EQSN): e.g., "SCOMXXXXXXXX".
   - Vendor ID: "SCOM".
   - Hardware Version (EQVID): e.g., "SCOMFG824CDv2".
   - Equipment ID (EQID): "FG824CD".
   - Software Version (SWVER): e.g., "FG824CD3113".

## Step 2: Configure the Nokia G-010G-P ONT
Factory reset ONT (hold reset 10+ seconds). Default IP: 10.89.42.157 (or 192.168.100.1). Connect via Ethernet.

1. Telnet: `telnet 192.168.100.1` (user: `root`, password: `huigu309`). (it takes a while to open the connection, but it will connect)
   to go backwards type "exit"
2. Enter system mode:  
   ```
   #ONT>system
   ```
3. Enter shell mode:  
   ```
   #ONT/system>shell
   ```
4. Enter misc mode:  
   ```
   #ONT>system
   #ONT/system>misc
   ```
5. Set Serial Number (EQSN):  
   ```
   #ONT/system/misc>eqsn set "SCOMXXXXXXXX"
   #ONT/system/misc>eqsn get  # Verify
   ```
6. Set PLOAM Password:  
   ```
   #ONT/system/misc>pon_passwd set "XXXXXXXXXX"
   #ONT/system/misc>pon_passwd get  # Verify
   ```
7. Set Vendor ID:  
   ```
   #ONT/system/misc>vendor set "SCOM"
   #ONT/system/misc>vendor get  # Verify
   ```
8. Set Hardware Version (EQVID):  
   ```
   #ONT/system/misc>eqvid set "SCOMFG824CDv2"
   #ONT/system/misc>eqvid get  # Verify
   ```
9. Set Equipment ID (EQID):  
   ```
   #ONT/system/misc>eqid set "FG824CD"
   #ONT/system/misc>eqid get  # Verify
   ```
10. Set OMCI Software Version:  
    ```
    echo SWVER=FG824CD3113 > /mnt/rwdir/sys.cfg
    ```
11. Commit changes:  
    ```
    #ONT>system
    #ONT/system>mib
    #ONT/system/mib>reset
    ```
12. Reboot:  
    ```
    #ONT/system>reboot
    ```

Verify post-reboot: Telnet, `#ONT/system/pon>show link` (PON synced).

## Step 3: Connect the Hardware
1. Disconnect fiber from Sercomm FG824CD.
2. Connect fiber to Nokia PON port.
3. Wait 1-5 min for sync (PON LED green). If fails, swap back, wait 30-60 min (OLT lockout).
4. Connect Ethernet from Nokia LAN to your router's WAN.

## Step 4: Configure Your Router for PPPoE (Optional for Full Setup)
Vodafone uses PPPoE with VLAN 24 (priority 0) for NEBA.

1. Access router GUI (e.g., 192.168.1.1).
2. WAN: PPPoE mode.
3. Username: e.g., "ONH000XXXXXXX@vodafone".
4. Password: Extracted 20-char alphanumeric.
5. VLAN: ID 24, priority 0.
6. Save, reconnect.

## Troubleshooting
- No sync: Retry parameters or test without spoofing.
- Lockout: Wait or contact support.
- PPPoE fail: Recheck creds via Wireshark.
