11.3.1 atidoc03.cfg in Dual IP Mode

In Dual IP mode, the Transponder will first attempt to download the proprietary configuration

file atidoc03.cfg through the CPE’s interface from a TFTP server on the CPE network. In many

networks, the TFTP server is blocked or disabled, so the transponder also has provisions to

download this file through the Cable Modem interface from the modem’s provisioning server if

necessary. The filename and TFTP server location may also be specified through special tags
in the DHCP Offer, refer to

Section 13.3.3, Specifying atidoc03.cfg Name and Location via

DHCP Tags for details. Similiar to Single IP mode, any IDH4 proprietary SNMP MIB setting may

be placed in the modem’s DOCSIS configuration file which would eliminate the need for atidoc03.
