Configuration task list

To use CWMP, you must enable CWMP from the CLI. You can then configure ACS and CPE attributes from the CPE's CLI, the DHCP server, or the ACS.

For an attribute, the CLI- and ACS-assigned values have higher priority than the DHCP-assigned value. The CLI- and ACS-assigned values overwrite each other, whichever is assigned later.

This document only describes configuring ACS and CPE attributes from the CLI and DHCP server. For more information about configuring and using the ACS, see ACS documentation.

To configure CWMP, perform the following tasks:
