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 as “no cable secret-shared,” as shown in this command output

excerpt:

Troubleshooting CM Authentication

If you are having trouble, make sure that you entered the correct slot and port numbers when you entered

cable interface configuration mode. For additional troubleshooting information, refer to Chapter6,

“Troubleshooting the System.”

Command Purpose

cable shared-secret [0|7] authorization-key

no cable shared-secret

Enables CM authentication:

•0 specifies an unencrypted authentication key.

•7 specifies an encrypted authentication key.

Disables CM authentication.
