configuration techniques used by access networks. configuration techniques used by access networks.
There are three well-known methods of bootstrapping: There are three well-known methods of bootstrapping:
1. Using the DHCP protocol 1. Using the DHCP protocol
2. Using the PPP protocol 2. Using the PPP protocol
3. Using IEEE 802.1 LLDP-MED 3. Using IEEE 802.1 LLDP-MED
For location information, there are two types: location information For location information, there are two types: location information
regarding a civic address (e.g. 123 Main St ) and geospatial regarding a civic address (e.g. 123 Main St ) and geospatial
information (e.g. x, y, z coordinates). information (e.g. x, y, z coordinates).
The set of configuration data types has not been discussed or The set of configuration data types has not been discussed or
resolved. But the following types of configuration information have resolved. But the following types of configuration information have
