CPE Authentication Problem

Hello, I am trying to set CPE authentication, so i set cwmp.auth to AUTH(“username” , “password”). When I do that all my CPEs go offline. How can I solve this?.

What is the ACS username and password configured in your CPEs?

Hello dustin thanks for your response, I set a test username: acs and test password: acs

Is your cwmp.auth set to AUTH(username, password) OR AUTH(“acs”, “acs”)

First, you want to set a user and password on the ACS server or on the CPE ?

Device.ManagementServer.Username
and
Device.ManagementServer.Password

are to set the username and password to be able to access your ACS server. I leave it empty. The worst that could happen is somebody giving you the management of is CPE. But if you set a password there, you need to also find a way to provision your CPE with the same username and password. Some OLT allow to do it via OMCI when pusing the TR-x69 profile.

Device.ManagementServer.ConnectionRequestUsername
and
Device.ManagementServer.ConnectionRequestPassword

Those 2 are the username and password on the CPE to avoid somebody trying to took over the CPEs your ACS server control. Those should be set via the GenieACS provisionning script.

I set the username value at the device ID and I set a random password that change at every new inform. This way, all username and password are unique to each device.

Hello I managed to set it up and it is working well thanks

Glad to hear it.
