Zyxel VMG8924 query
« on: April 13, 2016, 10:09:25 PM »

Hi,

Acquired a used zyxel vmg8924 which I wanted to use purely in modem/bridge mode. I have managed to update the firmware but I think it must have come from an ISP image as tr069 seems enabled in the gui but selecting disable in the gui doesn't get remembered.

If used in bridge mode would tr069 still attempt to connect/have any effect  or is there anway to disable it as I guess it would be better to turn it off..

Thanks very much

1. Which firmware version does it have?

2. Have you confirmed the tr69c client is still actually running as a process ("ps | grep tr69c") ?

There are some bugs I've noticed where the web interface incorrectly reflects the state of the system (Broadband/IPV6 Default Gateway and MLD Proxy for example).

Cheers

Hi

Its on v13. I tried the command but its not recognised unless I am doing something wrong.

Any other way to check would be appreciated.

Thanks

You need to connect over SSH or Telnet and run the command in the Router's CLI.

E.g, from my GNU/Linux PC to the VMG8924:

Code: [Select]
$ ssh admin@fe80::ee43:f6ff:fe46:c080%wlp3s0                                                                 
admin@fe80::ee43:f6ff:fe46:c080%wlp3s0's password:
 > ps | grep tr69c
23392 supervis  2136 R    sh -c ps | grep tr69c
 > exit

Bye bye. Have a nice day!!!
Connection to fe80::ee43:f6ff:fe46:c080%wlp3s0 closed.
This only shows the process-list search command being executed, so TR069 client isn't running. If it were running you'd see another process reported with the name 'tr69c'.

The web admin interface's Maintenance > TR-069 Client page should show the service is 'Disabled'. Also, without a valid ACS URL the service will fail to start and cannot be enabled from the web interface.

Thanks I will try this. I did try from a telnet session with the previous command you gave me but it didn't seem to like the grep command.

I have now managed to disable tr069 client it from the console and took out the login information so I hope that's enough. Had to roll it back to an earlier version, delete the info then roll it back up. I only want to use it as a modem/bridge so hopefully this will be enough to rest my mind  :)
thanks

Thanks again, modem reported back as yours has in the example so hopefully that means I am good to go..
