TR069 feature

This technote mainly provides a general introduction of TR069 (Technical Report 069) and the way of enabling the TR069 on the Htek IP phones. The information in this document is restricted to the following Htek IP phone models with firmware version 1.0.3.85 or later:

TR069 introduction

...

TR069 is a technical specification, which is defined by the Broadband Forum. It defines a mechanism that encompasses secure auto-configuration of a CPE (Customer-Premises Equipment), and also incorporates other CPE management functions into a common framework. TR069 uses common transport mechanisms (HTTP) for communication between CPE and ACS (Auto Configuration Servers). The HTTP messages contain XML-RPC methods defined in the standard for configuration and management of the CPE. The protocol addresses different Internet access devices such as modems, routers, gateways, set-top boxes, and VoIP-phones for the end-users.

Why to use TR069?

TR069 is an application layer protocol, which has broad applicability and no access restriction. TR-69 standard allows the subscriber to manage all devices on a common platform regardless of its device type and manufacturer. Its specifications ensure that the device can be easily and securely configured, activated and managed from a console in the service provider's network. This allows the service provider to provide an efficient and cost effective deployment of services.

Configure the TR069 feature on the IP phone

TR069 feature is disabled on the IP phone by default. You can enable or disable the TR069 feature using the configuration files or web interface.
To configure TR069 using the AnchorOLE_LINK107OLE_LINK107 AnchorOLE_LINK108OLE_LINK108 configuration files:

1. Set the following parameters:

After configurations, the phone establishes the TR069 session with the ACS.

Support TR069 RPC Methods:

The RPC (Remote Procedure Call) method defines a generic mechanism that is used for bi-directional communication between a CPE and an ACS. An ACS can get or set parameters to configure and monitor the CPE by using the RPC methods. The following table provides a description of RPC methods supported by the Htek IP phones:

The ACS supports a variety of functionalities to manage a collection of phones using the above RPC methods, the following primary capabilities are included.
Auto-configuration and dynamic service provisioning
The ACS can provision a phone or collection of phones based on a variety of criteria. Different phone models can be configured using the uniform parameters. Phone can be provisioned at the initial connection and re-provision at any subsequent time. The ACS can also check the provision status (success or failure).
Firmware image management
Phone firmware can be upgraded or downgraded by downloading the firmware file from the ACS. TR069 also provides mechanisms for version identification and file download initiation (ACS initiated downloads and optional phone initiated downloads). The ACS can be notified of the success or failure of a file downloading.
Status and performance monitoring
The ACS can use the GetParameterValues and GetParameterAttributes methods to monitor the phone's status and performance statistics. TR069 also defines a set of mechanisms that allow the phone to actively notify the ACS of changes to its state.
Diagnostics
For troubleshooting purposes, the phone can send diagnostic information such as network status to the ACS, or the ACS can execute the defined diagnostic tests to get the information from the phone.
