SpeedTouch™ Configuration Management

4.4 SpeedTouch™ Service Templates

Introduction Template files are ASCII text files consisting of a set of SpeedTouch™ (embedded)

Easy Setup wizard specific commands and CLI commands.

Used by the SpeedTouch™ (embedded) Easy Setup wizard, template files allow users to complete the configuration of the device in a convenient and comprehensive way, without the need of manual configuration via CLI or the Web Interface.

Delivered template files Three template files are by default delivered within the SpeedTouch™ System software for use by means of the embedded Easy Setup wizard:

Template

Description

 

 

Bridge

WAN access (actually as an IEEE802.1D Transparent Bridge). In

 

this template, the DHCP Server has been disabled.

PPPoA. For the local network the SpeedTouch™ acts as DHCP

 

server.

 

 

Routed IPoA

A template to configure the SpeedTouch™ for Routed IP over

 

ATM. For the local network the SpeedTouch™ acts as DHCP

Template files on the SpeedTouch™ file system

As the default templates, are embedded in the system software, these template files will not be present in the ‘/dl’, (or ‘/active’) subdirectories by default.

However, via FTP access you are able to upload additional template files from the SpeedTouch™ Setup CD, or custom template files to the SpeedTouch™ ‘/dl’ subdirectory, to extend the diversity of embedded configuration possibilities and/or to avoid the need of using the SpeedTouch™ Home Install Wizard from the CD.

Each time the SpeedTouch™ Home Install Wizard is used to configure the device a ‘backup’ user.tpl file is created/overwritten in the ‘/dl’ subdirectory, for future use by the embedded Easy Setup wizard.
