Abstract

The present invention relates to a view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101). The TR-069 Object Model (101) comprises a plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108).

The module (305) comprises means for selecting and/or altering one or more of the plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108) based on credentials.

Claims

1. A view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101), said Object Model (101) comprising a plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108), characterized in that said module (305) comprises means for selecting and/or altering one or more of said plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108) based on credentials.

2. The view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101) according to claim 1, characterized in that said module (305) further comprises means for restricting access based on said credentials to one or more of the following:

visibility of one or more parameters out of said plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108);

mutability of one or more parameters out of said plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108); and

management of one or more parameters out of said plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108).

3. The view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101) according to claim 1, characterized in that said credentials are one or more of the following:

information related to the installer of a bundle whereto one or more of said plurality of parameters are related;

a manifest file related to a bundle or application whereto one or more of said plurality of parameters are related;

one or more configuration parameters out of said plurality of parameters; and

a TR-069 Session View Key (404).

4. The view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101) according to claim 1, characterized in that said module (305) is adapted to be installed on a Remote Management Server (201;

401).

5. The view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101) according to claim 1, characterized in that said module (305) is adapted to be installed on a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).

6. The view selector module (305) for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101) according to claim 1, characterized in that said module (305) is adapted to be integrated into the TR-069 Management Protocol.

7. A method for use in management of a TR-069 Object Model (101), said Object Model (101) comprising a plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108), characterized in that said method comprises the step of selecting and/or altering one or more of said plurality of parameters (102 . . . 108) based on credentials.
