Just though i'd post this here for reference.

 

One of my customers today had fibre installed through Callplus and according to the CSR I spoke to on the phone, the account came with a /30 ipv4 subnet and they are doing this for all accounts, please do correct me if i'm wrong though as i've only heard this from one CSR.  This could be useful for people wanting to run servers etc...

 

The ONT was provisioned with vlan 10 and IPoE not DHCP, so the ip's need to be set as static addresses in the router.

 

On another note, Callplus sent out the NF4V pre configured, however refused to give me the admin password to access modem config, said it was "remotely managed".  After explaining to them that it was a corporate network and we had our own gear to use, they gave me all the above settings and we are now going to be setting up a Mikrotik.  They still wouldn't give us the router admin password though, however a pin in the back of the router does reset it to admin/admin then you just need to re-configure the vlan/IPoE settings again with the static addresses.

The basic plan is /30

 

But customers can get a /29 subnet or more at additional cost, that's something that should've been discussed with the customer and sales.

 

 

 

If they're needing more IP addresses for servers/firewall, get them to call the customer service or sales to get more.

Thanks, thats great to know.  I set up a Mirotik for this customer and with some configuration it works very well.
