The asterisk (*) in the show cable modem command output indicates that the CMTS is using the power
adjustment method on this CM. The ! symbol indicates that the CM has reached maximum transmit
power.
This section documents the commands pertaining to amplitude averaging:
cable upstream power-adjust noise
cable upstream frequency-adjust averaging
Enabling or Disabling Power Adjustment
To enable the power-adjustment capability, use the cable upstream power-adjust command in interface
configuration mode. To disable the power-adjustment capability, use the no form of this command.
cable upstream n power-adjust {threshold [threshold #] | continue [tolerable value] | noise
[% of power adjustment]}
no cable upstream power-adjust
Syntax Description
Note The threshold default is 1dB. The tolerable value default is 2dB. The power adjustment is 30 percent.
Syntax Description
nSpecifies the upstream port number.
threshold # Specifies the power-adjustment threshold. The threshold range is from 0 to
10dB. The default is 1dB.
tolerable value Determines if the status of the RNG-RSP should be set to CONTINUE or
SUCCESS. The range is from 2 to 15dB. The default is 2dB.
% of power adjustment Specifies the percentage of power-adjustment packets required to switch
from the regular power-adjustment method to the noise power-adjustment
method. Range is from 10 to 100 percent. The default is 30 percent.
