Introduction

TR-069 is a technical specification that defines an application layer protocol for remote management of end-user devices. It was published by the Broadband Forum and was entitled CPE WAN Management Protocol (CWMP). It provides the communication between CPE and Auto Configuration Servers (ACS). An ACS can manage a device, trouble shoot, configure, upgrade etc. TR-69 uses common web protocols such as HTTP, TCP-IP, SOAP, XML-RPCs to exchange information.

ACS Server and Client Rpi communication

TR69 ACS uses HTTP/SOAP to communicate with EP or GW. The TR69 protocol agent hides all the protocol specific details and communicates internally using internal namespaces and APIs over the CCSP message bus.

Validation and Testing

Client RPI set-up

Steps to be followed:

1. Flash the RDK-Broadband image where the Tr069 Protocol Agent is enabled
   
   
2. Check for the Tr069Pa is active
   
   
   
   

3. Then, set the parameters,

   $  dmcli eRT setv Device.ManagementServer.EnableCWMP bool true
   
   $  dmcli eRT setv Device.ManagementServer.URL string http://172.20.10.115:7547/
   
   $  dmcli eRT setv Device.DeviceInfo.X_RDKCENTRAL-COM_Syndication.TR69CertLocation string "/etc/cacert.pem"

   
   Following are the parameters needed to be checked for TR69

   Parameter Name	Expected Value
   Device.ManagementServer.EnableCWMP	true
   Device.ManagementServer.URL	ACS Server URL:  http://172.20.10.115:7547/
   Device.DeviceInfo.X_RDKCENTRAL-COM_Syndication.TR69CertLocation	/etc/cacert.pem

   Now, from the GenieACS Server try to fetch the Connected Devices details
