Hi guys,

I used this command from the OLT for my CPE (Huawei EG8145V5):

```
ont tr069-server-profile add profile-id 2 url http://x.x.x.x:7547/ user admin foofoo auth-realm auth
ont tr069-server-config 0 0 profile-id 2

```

And it only set the ACS url, username and password but not the connection request username and password. So, when I try to refresh the device it returns: “_Incorrect connection request credentials_”.

What could I do? Someone could kindly help me?

Thank you in advance for the support

If you are using 1.2 I have the following set in my config.

cwmp.connectionRequestAllowBasicAuth = True  
cwmp.connectionRequestAuth = AUTH(“admin”, “foopasshere”)

While this works, it’s using a fixed set of credentials for all devices which is not ideal. By default the values in ConnectionRequestUsername/Password parameters are used for authentication. So you can simply set those parameters via a preset. The initialization wizard in 1.2 already configures unique credentials per device and that should work out of the box.

Thank you but I’m using version 1.1… Is there something else to do for this version?
