TCP/IP is the "language" of the Internet. TCP/IP is used to
refer to a suite of protocols used for data communication
over the Internet. TCP and IP are the network and transport
protocols underlying most Internet services, including file
transfer (FTP) and e-mail communication (SMTP). TCP/IP is
available for practically all computer systems. TCP/IP thus
offers the advantage of trouble-free communication be-
tween otherwise incompatible networks and systems.
T-069 is an HTTP-based protocol for communication be-
tween CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) and an Auto
Configuration Server (ACS) belonging to the Internet Ser-
vice Provider. The TR-069 protocol is also known under the
alternative name CPE WAN Management Protocol (CWMP).
It offers the possibility of setting up the terminal device
securely and automatically and thus, most importantly, fa-
cilitates simple initial configuration of the ADSL terminal
equipment by the end customer (autoprovisioning).
The TR-069 protocol can be used for automatic configura-
tion only if it is actively supported by the given terminal
device. For this an Auto Configuration Client (ACC) must be
integrated in the device. The specifications for automatic
configuration of the ADSL terminal device are stored on
the Auto Configuration Server by the given Internet Service
Provider. As soon as the ADSL terminal device initiates the
autoconfiguration process, the settings are retrieved from
the Auto Configuration Server and implemented in the
ADSL terminal device without any further interaction with
the user. During this process all of the communication be-
tween the ADSL terminal device and the Auto Configura-
tion Server takes place in encrypted form.
