technicians need specialized tools to resolve RF problems in the cable plant. Cisco Broadband
Troubleshooter 3.2 (CBT 3.2) is a simple, easy-to-use tool designed to accurately recognize and resolve
such issues.
Cisco IOS Release 12.3(9a)BC enhances support for the Cisco Broadband Troubleshooter (CBT)
Version 3.2 on the Cisco uBR7246VXR universal broadband, with newly supported interoperability for
the additional software features.
CBT 3.2 offers the following enhancements on the Cisco uBR7246VXR router:
CBT 3.2 resolves the former caveat CSCee03388. This enable users to compare an upstream and
cable modem on the same trace window.
Formerly, trace windows could support the selection of up to three upstream or cable modems, but
the upstream(s) and cable modems could not be mixed. CBT 3.2 now supports three upstreams or
cable modems to be selected and mixed in the trace window.
For additional information about CBT 3.2, spectrum management and STM 1.1, refer to the following

Fast Fault Detection
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)BC1 introduces support for Fast Fault Detection (FFD) on the Cisco
uBR7246VXR router. This feature improves performance and convergence times when performing N+1
redundancy switchovers by having the failing line card proactively notify the HCCP control system
about its failure. This results in a switchover occurring immediately upon a software fault, reducing the
downtime of the card and minimizing any interruptions in the traffic that is flowing across the card.
