About This Guide

This Calix 844G/854G GigaCenter User Manual defines the gateway's Embedded Web Interface (EWI) and provides instructions for managing a GigaCenter via the EWI. This guide explains how to set up and maintain Ethernet network settings, 800G GigaCenter devices, and any subtended subscriber devices attached to GigaCenter. In addition, information on the set-up and maintenance of the dual 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Wi-Fi radios is also provided. Note: This guide is intended to educate users in setup and configuration of the 800G GigaCenter gateway for use in the home network. This guide does not address the provisioning of network access services on the GigaCenters themselves. For information on services provisioning, refer to the appropriate platform documentation.

Intended Audience

This guide is intended for use by consumers. Cursory knowledge of Internet Protocol (IP) and GPON based systems as well as a general understanding of IP addressing, routing principles, and internet security are also highly desired. This document assumes that the subscriber's laptop or PC is equipped with a supported web browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox) and that the user is familiar with its use. Familiarity with datacom, telecom, and standards-based Ethernet technologies and conventions is also recommended. Note: For the purposes of this guide, it is assumed your service provider has already activated your GigaCenter on the GPON network and is being managed remotely.
