Configuring a CPE to become managed through CWMP/TR-069

Overview

To configure a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) device for management through the CWMP/TR-069 protocol, you must enable TR-069 management on your CPE device and configure it to communicate with the CONTROL platform.

Required CPE Configuration Fields

The following configuration fields are required for initial setup and should be available in your CPE device settings:

• CWMP/TR-069 Server URL: The URL endpoint of the CWMP/TR-069 Server Platform
• Periodic Inform Interval: The reporting frequency (in seconds) for status updates between the CPE and CWMP/TR-069 Server Platform
• Username: The username credential used to authenticate the CPE to the CWMP/TR-069 Server Platform
• Password: The password credential used to authenticate the CPE to the CWMP/TR-069 Server Platform

Optional CPE Configuration Fields

Some CPE devices may offer additional TR-069 configuration parameters:

• Connection Request URL: The CPE's URL endpoint for receiving connection requests
• Connection Request Username: The username for authenticating connection requests to the CPE
• Connection Request Password: The password for authenticating connection requests to the CPE

Note: These optional parameters are not required for initial CPE setup and can be configured later through the CONTROL platform itself.

Example Configuration

A typical initial TR-069 CPE configuration would look like:

• URL: https://control-dev.zequenze.com/cwmp/
• Periodic Inform Interval: 120 (seconds)
• Username: test-device
• Password: c0mpl3xpazz

Important Authentication Requirements

The Username and Password fields configured on the CPE must match the credentials defined in the CONTROL platform. These credentials can be configured either:

• For a specific individual device, or
• For a device TYPE (when using auto-onboarding functionality)
