Adding a CPE device

You need to add a CPE device if you are automatically registering it (ZTP). When adding a CPE device, you must specify the DPID that will be used to match the added record with the CPE device that you will connect later. You can add a CPE device to the current SD-WAN instance, a tenant, or a different SD-WAN instance.

To add a CPE device:

  1. Add a CPE device in one of the following ways:
    • If you want to add a CPE device to the current SD-WAN instance, in the menu, go to the SD-WAN → CPE section and in the upper part of the page, click + CPE.
    • If you want to add a CPE device to a tenant, in the menu, go to the Tenants section, under Tenants, select the created tenant, and under CPEs, click + CPE.
    • If you want to add a CPE device to a different SD-WAN instance, navigate to the SD-WAN → SD-WAN instances subsection, click a deployed SD-WAN instance, and in the upper part of the settings area, under Actions, click Create.
  2. This opens a window; in that window, in the Name field, enter the name of the CPE device.
  3. In the DPID field, enter the DPID of the CPE device. You can find the DPID on the box of the CPE device.

    If the CPE device does not have a DPID, you can specify a temporary DPID, for example, temporary DPID. You can replace the temporary DPID with the actual DPID.

  4. In the State drop-down list, select the CPE device state after registration:
    • Enabled to apply a CPE template to the CPE device and use it to relay traffic. Default value.
    • Disabled to not apply a CPE template to the CPE device.
  5. If necessary, in the Description field, enter a brief description of the CPE device.
  6. If you are adding a CPE device to an SD-WAN instance, in the Tenant drop-down list, select the transport tenant to which you want to add the CPE device. The CPE device connects to the controller of the SD-WAN instance that is deployed for the transport tenant. You can select an SD-WAN instance pool.
  7. In the Customer tenant drop-down list, select the customer tenant to which you want to add the CPE device. The customer tenant can manage the CPE device in its self-service portal.
  8. If you want to create a UNI on the CPE device using a UNI template, in the UNI template drop-down list, select the created UNI template.
  9. In the CPE template drop-down list, select the created CPE template which you want to use to configure the CPE device.
  10. In the NetFlow template drop-down list, select the created NetFlow template that you want to use to configure basic NetFlow settings on the CPE device.
  11. In the Firewall template drop-down list, select the created firewall template which you want to use to configure the firewall of the CPE device.
  12. Click Next and specify the address of the CPE device location in the Address field. As you enter the address, you are prompted to select an address from a drop-down list.

    The address is displayed on the map.

  13. Click Add.

The device is added, its status changes to Waiting, and you get one of the following results:

  • If you added the CPE device to the current SD-WAN instance, the CPE device is displayed in the table.
  • If you added the CPE device to a tenant, the CPE device is displayed under CPEs.
  • If you added the CPE device to a different SD-WAN instance, the self-service portal is opened in a new browser tab. You are automatically logged in to the self-service portal and taken to the CPE subsection. The CPE device is added to the table.

This tab also displays the table of Out-of-band management tasks being performed by the orchestrator.

  3. In the upper part of the settings area, under Actions, click Get activation URL.

    This opens a window with the basic CPE device settings URL.

  4. Save the URL with basic CPE device settings in one of the following ways:
    • If you want to copy the URL, click Copy next to it.
    • If you want to save the URL as an HTML file, click Save to HTML next to it.

    You need to connect an administrator device to the LAN port of the CPE device and use the saved URL with basic settings to automatically register the CPE device.

  5. If you want to install certificates on a CPE device with firmware version 23.07:
    1. In the Version drop-down list, select 23.07.
    2. Click Copy next to all generated URLs with basic settings.
    3. Save the generated URLs with basic settings.

    You need to visit each of the copied URLs with basic settings in sequence on the CPE device where you want to install certificates.
