shared-secret
Sets a shared secret on the current CMTS interface. The shared secret is shared by both the
provisioning server and the CMTS. You must configure the same shared secret for both the CMTS
and the provisioning server utilized by that CMTS. The CMTS uses the shared secret to verify that
the cable modems received their configurations through a trusted server.
Use the no form of the command to remove the shared secret.
