Abstract: An example method for zero touch deployment of multi-tenant services in a home network environment is provided and includes receiving router configuration information of a home router located in a home network, the router configuration information including at least one slice setting for a service deployment at the home router, and configuring the slice setting on the home router for the service from a remote network separate from the home network. The slice setting can logically divide the home router to enable separation of the service from other services provisioned and configured on the home router. In specific embodiments, the method further includes receiving a request for the service from a service user entity, sending a slice provisioning request to a router manager for provisioning the service in the home router, and receiving a slice provisioned response comprising the router configuration information from the router manager.

Abstract: At a customer premises equipment comprising one or more network interfaces, an instruction to provision a slice of the customer premises equipment (CPE) for a tenant application is received from a root network manager. The instruction identifies at least one network interface of the one or more network interfaces to allocate to the slice. The slice of the CPE is provisioned, where provisioning the slice comprises allocating CPE resources including the at least one network interface to the slice of the customer premises equipment. The tenant application is obtained. Data associating the tenant application with the slice of the CPE is stored. A management instruction for managing the tenant application is received directly from a secondary network manager associated with the tenant application. The management instruction is executed only in relation to the slice.
