Default Subscriber Management Settings
Default filter groups and other subscriber management defaults are used when no groups or other specific subscriber
management parameters are specified in the cable modem config file. Defaults apply to the parameters unless otherwise
specified in the cable modem config file.
Subscriber management control must be enabled for default parameters to have an effect. Once enabled, filters are
applied to modems when they register or re-register. Modems registered prior to default parameter configuration will not
be affected.
Enable/Disable CLI Example
Use the following command to enable or disable subscriber management control:
configure [no] cable submgmt default active
Set Default CLI Examples
Use the following command form to set default values for registering modems:
configure cable submgmt default <parameter>
Example:
configure cable submgmt default ?
active - CPE Control for Subscriber Management Filtering
filter-group - Configure filter groups
learnable - Filter group provisioning is learned from CM/eSAFE device
max-cpe - Provision the maximum number of IP addresses behind a CM.
v6-max-cpe - Provision the maximum number of IPv6 addresses behind a CM
Note: Parameters referring to IPv6 in the CLI syntax specifically refer to version 6. For example, "v6-max-cpe". IP related
parameters that do not specifically refer to IPv6 are IPv4. For example, "max-cpe" refers to IPv4 addresses.
Example:
configure cable submgmt default active
configure cable submgmt default filter-group host upstream 10
configure cable submgmt default filter-group host downstream 10
configure cable submgmt default learnable
configure cable submgmt default max-cpe 16
Where: the range of max-cpe is 0-32, and 0 means "Do not allow any."
configure cable submgmt default v6-max-cpe 16
