Yes, it is no longer paid and is the offshoot of what used to be a paid project. Honestly, GenieACS looks like the better open source ACS; certainly a newer UI.

Did community take it over? We ended up deciding to go the paid route. The ACS company we are with... I have mixed feelings so don't want to give a good or bad review yet. But, I'm still curious about what others are using in case we decide to dump them. -Steve D On Wed, May 2, 2018 at 11:16 AM, Jesse DuPont <jesse.dup...@celeritycorp.net<mailto:jesse.dup...@celeritycorp.net>> wrote: I loaded up FreeACS and put the URL for it in my Telrad UE's and also a Mikrotik with the TR-069 package on it. I've got my ACS configured to allow anything so every UE and the Mikrotik showed up in the ACS and I can see the stats from the last time each device updated. I did make a "profile" for the Telrad so it would ask for certain fields, but I did it by having the ACS ask for all fields and then adding the ones I wanted to the profile; same for the Mikrotik. Other than getting them to show up in the ACS, I haven't done anything constructive like firmware update, but I'll be testing it with the Mikrotik. I guess it does log syslog entries to the database. It looks like I'd have to do some DBA wizardry to get the UE stats into something I can graph over time (like an RRD or other DB) because it appears that only the most recent stat is kept in the database (that is, it's not a time series field maybe?). I suppose with a little reading, I could get them into InfluxDB or something like that, trend them in Grafana. A few screen shots attached.

The open source ACS's give you no templates, so you have to know what you're doing and create templates. In theory the manufacturer can pre-populate their ACS with templates. The first one I ever saw that really made life easy for you was Readynet's cloud based ACS. I don't know if they support any devices other than their own, but if they did I might pay them for the privilege! ------ Original Message ------ From: "Mike Hammett" <af...@ics-il.net<mailto:af...@ics-il.net>> To: af@afmug.com<mailto:af@afmug.com> Sent: 5/2/2018 12:51:53 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] TR-069 ACS and is there any advantage to using one that comes from the vendor vs. a third party one? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions<http://www.ics-il.com/> [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/googleicon.png]<https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/linkedinicon.png]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/twittericon.png]<https://twitter.com/ICSIL> Midwest Internet Exchange<http://www.midwest-ix.com/> [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/linkedinicon.png]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/twittericon.png]<https://twitter.com/mdwestix> The Brothers WISP<http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/youtubeicon.png] <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg> ________________________________ From: "Adam Moffett" <dmmoff...@gmail.com<mailto:dmmoff...@gmail.com>> To: af@afmug.com<mailto:af@afmug.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 2, 2018 11:50:47 AM Subject: [AFMUG] TR-069 ACS Has anybody tripped over an ACS software package that they like?
