Notification Rules

Introduction
The ParameterList argument of an Inform message contains a list of informational parameters and their
values.
The list includes:
Required parameters: these parameters must be sent in each Inform message.
Changed parameters: these parameters are sent in the Inform message to announce that the value of
these parameters changed since the previous Inform message was sent.
Notification rules
Each notification rule defines the notification behaviour of a specific parameter.
Notification rules can be used to:
Add non-standard parameters to the list of required parameters.
Specify the behaviour of the CPE when the value of a specific parameter changes.
Creating a notification rule
To create a notification rule, execute the command
of following optional parameters:
Name: this is the name of the parameter, i.e. a complete path name.
Notification: this parameter defines the notification behaviour.
Off (change notification off): the CPE does not need to inform the ACS of a change of the parameter.
Passive (passive change notification): whenever the parameter value changes, the CPE must include
the new value in the ParameterList argument of the Inform message that is sent the next time a
session is established to the ACS (for example, a periodic Inform or an Inform due to a Connection
Request).
Active (active change notification): whenever the parameter value changes, the CPE must initiate a
session to the ACS and include the new value in the ParameterList argument of the sent Inform
message.
Forced: the parameter value must be sent in each Inform message. In addition, active change
notification is used.
Inform: the parameter value must be sent in each Inform message.
Keystring: this is the keystring_id of the notification rule.
For example, execute following command to sent the PPP user name to the ACS at the start of every
transaction session:
=>:cwmp notification rule
name=InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.1.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANPPPConnection.1.Username
notification=inform
E-DOC-CTC-20071119-0003 v1.0
:cwmp notification rule
