Configuring Connection Request Options
You can use Cisco BAC to control the behavior of connection requests by configuring your preferences
for:
• Configuring Authentication
• Configuring Connection Request Methods
• Configuring Reachability
Note You can set your preferences on the device object or in its property hierarchy.
Configuring Authentication
Two properties that you set on the device object in the RDU affect authentication. They are:
• On the API:
–
IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_USERNAME
–
IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_PASSWORD
• On the administrator user interface:
–
Devices > Modify Device > Connection Request User Name field
–
Devices > Modify Device > Connection Request Password field
You can also set the connection request username and password while adding a device on the
Add Device page, and change the username and password in the Modify Device page.
Both properties control the connection request username and password that are used in DPE-CPE
authentication. This username and password differ from the username and password used to authenticate
CWMP sessions between the DPE and a device. These properties are for a single device; thus, they can
be set only on the device object.
