documentation includes:
• Release notes: Generated at each GA release, this document includes the known and solved
issues of the software. It also outlines the changes and the new features the release includes.
• Configuration notes: These documents are created to facilitate the configuration of a specific
use case. They address a configuration aspect we consider that most users will need to
perform. However, in some cases, a configuration note is created after receiving a question
from a customer. They provide standard step-by-step procedures detailing the values of
the parameters to use. They provide a means of validation and present some conceptual
information. The configuration notes are specifically created to guide the user through an
aspect of the configuration.

technical action, such as performing a firmware upgrade.

information such as where and how TR-069 can be configured in the Management Interface,
how to set firewalls, or how to use the CLI to configure parameters that are not available in the
