Event 3—Obtain Upstream Parameters
The cable modem waits for an upstream channel descriptor messages (UCD) from the headend
Cisco uBR7246. This is done to retrieve transmission parameters for the upstream channel.

Event 4—Start Ranging for Power Adjustments
The ranging process adjusts cable modem’s transmit power. The cable modem performs ranging in
two stages, ranging state 1 and ranging state 2.
The field
CMAC_LOG_POWER_LEVEL_IS is the power level that the Cisco uBR7246 told the cable
modem to adjust to. The field
CMAC_LOG_RANGING_SUCCESS indicates that the ranging adjustment was
successful.
