NOTE:
For more information about DHCP, DHCP Option 43, the
option
command, DHCP address pool
configuration, and DNS server configuration, see
Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.
Configuring the DNS server
On the DNS server, you need to bind the URL address to the IP address of the ACS server to make sure
that CPEs can obtain the IP address of the ACS through the DNS function.
Configuring the ACS server
An ACS performs auto-configuration of a CPE through remote management. For the primary
configurable parameters, see “
Configuration parameter deployment.
” For how to configure the ACS
server, see the user manual came with your ACS server.
Configuring CPEs
You can set CWMP parameters at the CLI.
NOTE:
•
The switches operate as CPEs in a CWMP-enabled network, so the following describes only the
configuration on CPEs.
•
You can perform some configurations on CPEs at the CLI, or remotely obtain the configurations from the
ACS or DHCP server. The configurations obtained through ACS and DHCP, and configurations made at
the CLI are of descending priorities. The configurations of a higher priority take effect.
