WT-181 (DEV2DM)WT-181: Device Data Model

WT-181 Issue 2 defines version 2 of the Device Data Model (Device:2) for TR-069 CPEs and USP Agents.

This includes XML files that model interfaces, systems, and services in connected devices which is used to create a consumable HTML report.

In addition an explanatory document, written in in Markdown, exists and is provided as HTML document.

WT-181 Issue 2 Amendment 18 (2.18) is currently in progress.

WT-106: Data Model Template for CWMP Endpoints and USP Agents

WT-106 specifies data model guidelines to be followed by all CWMP Endpoints and USP Agents.  These guidelines include structural requirements for the data hierarchy, requirements for versioning of data models, and requirements for defining profiles.

In addition, WT-106 defines an XML Schema (the DM Schema) that as far as possible embodies these guidelines, and which is used for defining all CWMP and USP data models.  This makes data model definitions rigorous, and helps to reduce the danger that different implementations will interpret data model definitions in different ways.

WT-106 also defines an XML Schema (the DT Schema) that allows a device to describe its supported data model.

WT-106 Amendment 14 (1.14) is currently in progress.

This new version (written in Python) will be well-structured, maintainable, and will encourage collaborative development and will eventually fully replace the old tool (written in Perl).

Work towards the next release of the new report tool (2.2) is currently ongoing.

ATP-069 Issue 2

TR-069 Abstract Test Plan

ATP-069 provides a test plan that may be used to verify conformance of a CPE Device to the requirements defined in TR-069.

In force version: ATP-069 Issue 2 Corrigendum 1


DTP-181 Amendment 3

CWMP Interoperability and Functionality Test Plan

In order to ensure the continued growth of the TR-069 market and further the interoperability of the protocol, the Broadband Forum is creating a TR-069 Certification Program. Within this program, devices implementing a TR-069 management interface may be tested for their conformance to the TR-069 specification and various use cases.  The TR-069 Certification Program started with the TR-069 Conformance Test Plan and now the CWMP Data Model Implementation Test Plan.  To provide a consistent scope for this verification, BBF developed these test plans that are to be used by the testing agencies in the verification process.

This Internal Document provides a test plan that may be used to verify Interoperability of a CPE Device with an ACS Server through use cases.

Specification

Kanban Board

In force version: TP-181 Amendment 2


DTP-469Conformance Test Plan for USP Agents

Testing is crucial to promoting the interoperability and adoption of standards. To meet this, the Broadband Forum regularly produces test suites that validate the conformance of implementations of their standards. This specification defines the test setup, test procedures, and test metrics to validate Agent and implementations of the User Services Platform (USP), published as BBF TR-369.

This purpose of this document is to provide a definitive guide for validating the compliance of USP Agents in accordance with the specification.

The tests defined below are intended to validate the specific requirements outlined in the USP specification, as well as those requirements defined in the Device:2 Data Model for USP Agents for objects, parameters, commands, and events necessary for the operation of USP.

TBD upon next version

WT-398 i4Wi-Fi Residential & SOHO Performance Testing

This test plan provides a set of performance test cases with pass/fail requirements for 802.11n/ac/ax implementations, to assist operators in the selection of Wi-Fi capable devices. Operators will use additional criteria, such as deployment scenarios, customer needs, complexity, when selecting equipment and defining deployment configurations. These test cases are not suitable for consumer selection of devices in the absence of expert level understanding of Wi-Fi operation, configurations, and deployment scenarios. The corresponding certification programs of interoperability are “Wi-Fi 4” “Wi-Fi 5”, and “Wi-Fi 6” for 802.11n, 802.11ac, and 802.11ax in Wi-Fi Alliance, respectively.

The primary goal of TR-398 is to provide a standard set of test cases and framework to measure aspects of the performance between AP (e.g., a CPE with Wi-Fi), one or more reference STA (e.g., PC, integrated testing equipment, etc.), and if applicable, one Wi-Fi repeater,  under controlled laboratory conditions. The test cases are defined for a Device Under Test (DUT – AP only), tested against a or a set of STA. The DUT SHOULD NOT be a reference design and SHOULD contain the necessary system functionality to execute this test plan.

titleAbstract ....

This document describes the architecture, protocol, and data model that builds an intelligent User Services Platform. It is targeted towards application developers, application service providers, CPE vendors, consumer electronics manufacturers, and broadband and mobile network providers who want to expand the value of the end users network connection and their connected devices.

 This document describes:

  • The overall architecture of USP Agents, Controllers, and service elements
  • The proxy mechanisms for addressing non-USP service elements
  • Requirements for the transport protocol used to handle USP messages, and defined bindings for specific protocols.
  • The various USP messages, their requirements, and expected behavior patterns, along with on-the-wire encoding of USP messages
  • The protocol requirements for discovery, end-to-end security, authentication, and authorization
  • An explanation of the data model and how it is used to enable USP, service elements, proxying, and object defined operations

The objects necessary to implement USP are described in the Device:2 data model of the CPE WAN Management Protocol, (CWMP).
