Introduction

The Vodafone MachineLink 3G Router supports the Technical Report 069 (TR-069) standard published by the Broadband Forum for remote

customer-premises equipment (CPE) administration and management.

The TR-069 standard was developed for automatic configuration of CPE devices such as as modems, routers, gateways, set-top boxes, and VoIP-

phones with Auto Configuration Server (ACS). An increasing number of network carriers and ISPs are using TR-069 ACS to mass deploy, administer

and manage their TR-069-ready CPE remotely.

The purpose of this whitepaper is to demonstrate how to establish a connection between a Vodafone MachineLink 3G Router with an ACS server

and how to perform a firmware upgrade remotely via TR-069 on Vodafone MachineLink 3G Routers.

Other TR-069 operations are described in a separate document including:

GetParameterNames : Retrieve list of supported parameter names from the device.

GetParameterValues: Retrieve one or multiple the current monitoring parameters values.

SetParameterValues: Sets the value of one or multiple parameters.

GetParameterAttributes: Retrieves the current monitoring (Active/Passive/None) set on a parameter or multiple parameters.

SetParameterAttributes: Sets attributes of one or multiple parameters

Retrieve Device System Log from ACS Server

Reboot: reboot CPE remotely from ACS Server

Factory Reset: restore CPE to factory default settings from ACS Server

In this white paper, for the purpose of demonstrating how to perform a device firmware upgrade via TR-069, a particular ACS was chosen for taking

screenshots. The exact procedures and steps may vary depending on the type of ACS used by the user. For privacy reasons, the login credentials

to the management URL of the ACS Server in this white paper has been replaced with http://xxx.xxx.xxx/management/ and the CPE connection

URLs were replaced with http://xxx.xxx.xxx/cpe.php. The ACS user name, password and CPE TR-069 Connection Request user name and password

used in this white paper are for test purposes only.

Considerations with TR-069

When configuring your MachineLink 3G for TR-069, you should ensure that the following considerations are addressed:

•The device must have IP address access to the ACS server which may pose a problem on some private networks

•The device must have a publicly routable IP address for connection requests to work

Establishing a connection between a MachineLink 3G Router and Auto

Configuration Server

Before establishing the connection between the Vodafone MachineLink 3G Router and the ACS server, please check the following:

Ensure the relevant version of firmware is loaded in the MachineLink 3G Router that supports TR-069

Ensure the MachineLink 3G Router is loaded with a test SIM that supports an accessible WAN IP address. In this white paper, the SIM

used in the MachineLink 3G Router has a public IP address.

You have the ACS management URL, administrator user name and password for remote management

The MachineLink 3G Router TR-069 device product class name and serial number (SN) is registered in the ACS

You have the MachineLink 3G Router ACS CPE connection URL, ACS user name and password

You have the MachineLink 3G Router CPE TR-069 Connection Request user name and password

You have read the device manual and know how to connect and make device configuration via its web management interface

TR-069 ACS Server Configuration

Prior to configuring the MachineLink 3G Router, the device product class name and serial number must be registered on the Auto Configuration

Server.

ACS server management URL: http://xxx.xxx.xxx/management/

Username: xxxx

Password: xxxx

Create the Device Model on ACS server

1. Navigate to Home > Manage Device Types

Figure 2: Manage Device Types option

2. Navigate to Home > Manage Device Models > Add Device Type

Figure 1: Add Device Type link

When creating a device model on the ACS, the OUI and the product class need to match the settings shown in Figure 3 below.

Add the Device on the ACS server

1. Navigate to Home > Manage Devices > Add Device and fill in the add device form, then click Manage Devices.

2. Click the Add Device link.

Figure 4: Add Device link

The serial number is the last 6 digits of the MAC address of the device.

TR-069 CPE Configuration

By default, the Vodafone MachineLink 3G Router is not pre-configured with active TR-069 client settings and the TR-069 feature is disabled.

To test the TR-069 features, you need to manually login via the router’s Ethernet interface to enable the TR-069 feature and configure it with the

relevant TR-069 client settings.

An example of the MachineLink 3G Router TR-069 client configuration is shown in Figure 8.

Figure 6: An example MachineLink3G Router TR-069 client configuration

The Auto Configuration Server relies on the router’s first device boot up or initial inform to learn the router’s WAN IP address. This can be triggered

by manually disabling and enabling the CPE TR-069 configuration or waiting for the periodic inform message from the CPE to the ACS server.

After the inform period has elapsed (600 seconds by default), the Last Contacted field shows the time of the last inform message indicating that

the MachineLink 3G Router is now part of the group and communicating with the ACS server.

Note: The ACS uses the last 6 characters of the device MAC address as the serial number.

Figure 7: First inform time stamp

The device inform message will contain the device’s current WAN IP address. This is viewable by clicking on the Device Data tab.

Figure 8: Viewing the device data tab

The TR-069 ACS Server and TR-069 M2M Router CPE connection has now been established. You may now start to perform a device firmware

upgrade remotely via TR-069.
