Why do tests fail when the testvar tr69InitiateConnection is set to no?

When setting up CDRouter TR-069 to run automatically, the testvar tr69InitiateConnection should be set to yes. When tr69InitiateConnection is set to yes, CDRouter will always initiate a connection using the CPE Connection Request URL. However, some PD-128 test cases specifically require the CPE to initiate a new connection by some local means. This may be a reboot or local action. By setting the testvar tr69InitiateConnection to no, you can execute these tests using the exact PD-128 test procedure. This may require some level of manual intervention to make sure the local action is executed when expected.

We recommend that you start out running with tr69InitiateConnection set to yes.
