Abstract: It is determined that a customer premises equipment (CPE) that provides data access to a local area network has been dynamically provisioned with a differentiated feature that is different from default features identified in a boot configuration from which the CPE obtains features during a boot phase of the CPE. A first CPE identifier of the CPE is determined and stored in a memory. Subsequent to storing the first CPE identifier in the memory, information that contains a second CPE identifier and that indicates that a CPE identified by the second CPE identifier has initiated a boot phase is received. It is determined that the second CPE identifier matches the first CPE identifier. Subsequent to the CPE initiating the boot phase, the CPE is caused to be dynamically provisioned with the differentiated feature.

Abstract: A system includes multiple different types of monitor resources to monitor attributes of communication through a gateway of subscriber domain. The communication system receives identities of communication devices operated in a network of a subscriber domain and, via a first monitor resource, monitors traffic flow associated with the communication devices. A second monitor resource of the communication system monitors latency associated with communications from the gateway resource to the communication devices. A third monitor resource of the communication system monitors spectral energy in upstream and downstream ports of the communication system to determine a health of same. A communication management resource communicates the monitored information to a remote management resource that provides modeling, storage, and/or display of the respective monitor to a user.
