Password issue idea?

[Christopher Chance]

I think that’s what he means, if I set the preset to the correct genieacs username and password, and the devices solicit un/pw is set to blank/blank, the preset should trigger to set the un/pw.

Since blank <> properusername… only issue with this idea is that you cant do that for password because as far as I know tr69 always shows the password fields as blank regardless of if they are set or not so if the preset was checking password  it would always try to set it…

What would have to happen is “check username” if username isn’t preset then set username AND password.

Can presets set 2 values based on 1 incorrect match?

Presets get applied only if there is a difference between what the value should be, and what the value currently is.

When they first inform you can just set the solicit username/password you want with a  preset. Then you can solicit them knowing that they’ve been set to a known value.

One question, though, is does a preset get applied every time a device informs, or just on the first inform?

Chicken and egg problem. Because some of them require connection request authentication, and some don't.

What you could do though is query the ACS for the CPE and look at the InternetGatewayDevice.ManagementServer.ConnectionRequestUsername value. If its null/empty then you know to send the credentials of ""/"".

How you do that from within the auth function, I'm not real sure of.

Why not just use GenieACS to set the password on all devices when they come in? That way they’ll always be in a good state.

Was thinking of that the problem is that most of them from the old ones should have been changed to have the un/pw correctly, the issue is if they ever get factory defaulted and are talking to genie instead of the old nbbs, genie would want to use the password as it should but the device would have a blank username and password as that’s what they had by default.

Do you know the serial number range of the old modems? If you do, you could modify the auth.js to return the blank un/pw for those devices.

I have an issue sorta,

We currently use another ACS, the way it works is that the first set of CPE’s we got came stock with no CPE side user/password for auth, on first connection to the old ACS it set the remote cpe’s userid/password for tr69 from blank to a value… The newer wave of CPE’s came with the userid/pw set properly from the start.

My issue is if I move over to genieacs, we might have some of the older CPE’s that are missing the user pass (blank)/(blank) still and if I modify the auth.js to use the correct user/pass the ones missing the user and pass will not work, is there a way to make genieacs, if the user/pass fails, have it retry with blank/blank?
