TR-069 Remote Management Test Event

Seventeen vendors successfully participated in the first DSL Forum TR-069 Interoperability Test Event, held at the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Lab. This multi-vendor event represents a major milestone in the maturity of TR-069, its extension specifications and the products that implement them. The diverse vendor participation demonstrates the strength of market adoption of the DSL Forum's suite of DSLHome specifications.

Providing a comprehensive framework for deployment and management of next generation home networking equipment, TR-069 defines a CPE WAN Management Protocol for remote activation of routers, gateways and other premises devices. Together with its extensions, TR-104 for VoIP and TR-098 for QoS, the protocol specifies parameters for automated configuration, service provisioning and other management functions including diagnostics.

This set of specifications enables a common mechanism for dynamic provisioning of voice, data and video triple play services. Their implementation allows service providers to reduce "truck rolls" to deliver services, improve customer support for primary and advanced applications, and enhance overall residential and business subscriber satisfaction.

But, wouldn't that short-sighted decision have a detrimental impact on the overall national economy? It's a moot point -- pure fantasy -- you say. The U.S. political leadership would never knowingly risk the nation's social and economic future on the financial viability of a restrictive duopoly. Or, would they? The 21st century Global Networked Economy travels across essential broadband infrastructure. The forced intro...
