Swap out the Nokia XS-010X-Q for a Small Form-factor Pluggable WAS-110 or X-ONU-SFPP

This is strictly for the form-factor as they're all SFU (bridge-only) ONTs

Swap XS-010X-Q

Purchase a WAS-110 or X-ONU-SFPP

The WAS-110 and X-ONU-SFPP are available from select resellers worldwide. To streamline the process, some resellers are pre-flashing the 8311 community firmware and highly recommended for the X-ONU-SFPP. Purchase at your discretion; we take no responsibility or liability for the listed resellers.

Is the WAS-110 or X-ONU-SFPP a router?

The WAS-110 and X-ONU-SFPP are NOT a substitute for a layer 7 router; They are an ONT, and their ONLY function is to convert Ethernet to PON over fiber medium. Additional hardware and software are required to access the Internet.

Install the 8311 community firmware

As a prerequisite to masquerading as the XS-010X-Q, the 8311 community firmware is recommended and required for the remainder of this guide. If you purchased a pre-flashed WAS-110 or X-ONU-SFPP, skip past to the masquerade setup.

There are two methods to install the 8311 community firmware onto the WAS-110, outlined in the following guides:

Method 1: recommended

Install the 8311 community firmware on the WAS-110

Method 2:

WAS-110 multicast upgrade and community firmware recovery

The X-ONU-SFPP 8311 community firmware installation requires a two-step process and is more prone to failure and bricking.

This process is not thoroughly documented and can lead to a bricked device

Step 1: Install the Azores bootloader

Skip past to the solution in the following issue tracker on how to install the Azores bootloader.

Step 2: Multicast upgrade

Power off and remove fiber before continuing

  1. Power on the XS-010X-Q with an Ethernet cable plugged between the host PC.

  2. Setup a static IP address 192.168.100.2 and Netmask 255.255.255.0 on the host PC.

  3. Within a web browser, navigate to https://192.168.100.1 and, if asked, input the admin password 1234.

  4. From the ONT install page, click on More info button.

  5. Copy all the attributes for entry later in the guide.

Masquerade setup

Additionally, mandatory identifiers are available on the back label of the XS-010X-Q, such as ONT P/N, ICS, and CLEI if present.

    XS-010X-R

    Model XS-010X-R blocks access to web UI, making it impossible to find the SW Versions A/B. One value known to work currently is 3TN00669AOCK59, which coincides with the change in HW version prefix 3FE.. -> 3TN... Match regex also should be changed to (3TN[0-9A-Z]{11})$. The rest of the parameters can be found on the sticker.

  3. From the 8311 Configuration page, on the ISP Fixes tab, disable Fix VLANs from the drop-down.

    Identify VLANs

    Once configuration is complete and the fiber is connected, wait for successful authentication (O5 state). You can then use the VLAN Table Analyser to identify service VLANs by copying the table from the VLANs page (https://192.168.11.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/8311/vlans) and pasting it into the tool.

  4. Save changes and reboot from the System menu.

    Additional details and variables are described at the original repository 1

    /usr/sbin/fwenv_set is a helper script that executes /usr/sbin/fw_setenv twice consecutively.

    The WAS-110 functions as an A/B system, requiring the U-Boot environment variables to be set twice, once for each environment.

    The -8 option prefixes the U-Boot environment variable with 8311_.

  3. Verify the 8311 U-boot environment and reboot.

    fw_printenv | grep ^8311
reboot

After rebooting the WAS-110, safely remove the SC/APC cable from the XS-010X-Q and connect it to the WAS-110. If all previous steps were followed correctly, the WAS-110 should operate with O5.1 PLOAM status. For troubleshooting, please read the Troubleshoot connectivity issues with the WAS-110 guide before seeking help on the 8311 Discord community server.
