Method for configuring devices in dpoe system

A method for configuring devices in a DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification) Provisioning of EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network) (DPoE) system, the method to be implemented by a file conversion server that stores a plurality of household identifications (IDs) corresponding respectively to a plurality of multi-dwelling units (MDUs), and a plurality of user ID groups related respectively to the plurality of household IDs, each of the plurality of user ID groups including at least one user ID that respectively corresponds to at least one customer premise equipment (CPE) which is associated with one of the MDUs, the method comprising:

• in response to receiving, from a modem module, a configuration request that includes a target household ID corresponding to a target MDU from among the plurality of MDUs, selecting, from among the plurality of user ID groups, a target user ID group that is related to one of the plurality of household IDs which conforms with the target household ID;
• sending a file request that includes the target user ID group to a configuration file server, where the configuration file server, in response to receipt of the file request, obtains and sends at least one target configuration file that corresponds respectively to the at least one user ID included in the target user ID group to the file conversion server;
• and
• in response to receiving the at least one target configuration file from the configuration file server, converting the at least one target configuration file into an integrated configuration file that is associated with the target MDU and that includes a content of the at least one target configuration file, and sending the integrated configuration file to the modem module, the modem module, in response to receipt of the integrated configuration file, converting a format of the integrated configuration file to obtain a converted configuration file, where a content of the converted configuration file includes the content of the at least one target configuration file in a different format, and then sending the converted configuration file to the target MDU for the target MDU to configure, based on at least one target configuration portion of the content of the converted configuration file, at least one CPE that is associated with the target MDU.
