Hi,  
Is it possible to use genie in headless mode like without db, we just want to configure huawei ont wlan even only ssid & password config. Like we currently have backend in go which manage everything, currently do omci for everything in huawei olt. with genie we just need we can call api to configure or edit ssid, password of ont.

You can run GenieACS without the GUI and FS processes. CWMP, NBI and Mongo DB are necessary to communicate with the CPE.
