2. Add virtual CPEs to BIMS.
Add a CPE record containing CPE name, serial ID, OUI, and related information to the CPE
List of BIMS.
3. Customize a startup configuration file, and create an automatic deployment task for the virtual
CPEs.
4. The target CPE boots and sends DHCP discover packet.
5. The DHCP server replies with an Offer.
6. The CPE sends a DHCP request to the DHCP server.
7. The DHCP server replies with an ACK-Option 43, which contains the BIMS URL, connection
username, and password.
8. The CPE sends a TR-069 connection request to BIMS.
9. BIMS authenticates the request.
NOTE: After a virtual CPE passes the authentication, it becomes an available CPE which
can be managed by BIMS practically.
10. When the CPE passes the authentication, BIMS sends the configuration file to the CPE.
11. CPE applies the configuration file and sends the operation event (Success or Fail event ) to
BIMS.
BIMS operations
The following sections describe the operations you must perform in BIMS for this example.
