Activating CM Authentication
Activating CM Authentication
The CiscouBR10000series CMTS can be configured to require all CMs to return a known text string
to register with the CMTS and gain access to the network. The text string can be from 1 to 80 characters
in length. The default setting is "on" (CM authentication is activated).
To activate CM authentication, use the following command in cable interface configuration mode:
Tip Be sure that you enter the correct slot and port number in cable interface configuration mode. Verify
that the CM is using baseline privacy interface (BPI) and that it is assigned to a quality of service
(QoS) with privacy active. Verify that the cable interface configuration file contains a matching key.
Verifying CM Authentication
To verify if CM authentication has been activated or deactivated, enter the command
more system:running-config and look for the cable interface configuration information. If CM
authentication has been activated, it does not appear in this output. If CM authentication has been
deactivated, it appears in this output asno cable secret-shared,” as shown in this command output
