Abstract: Systems and methods for network profiling that may be used by a provider of high bandwidth connections to facilitate connectivity and service order entry by customers are disclosed. Typically, the customer has a plurality of client. The network profiling method generally comprises specifying at least one network configuration profile, the specifying including selecting a preferred CPE, selecting a network mode, selecting a network feature, selecting at least one network feature parameter including a static parameter, and defining a value for the static network feature parameter, wherein the network configuration profile includes at least one dynamic network feature parameter, the dynamic parameter having an unspecified value in the network configuration profile.

Abstract: A method and apparatus which simplifies the configuration of CPEs of several models, potentially from several manufacturers. Each model may be employ a different syntax for the configuration commands. A portable system is implemented to issue commands with all such different syntaxes. The configuration parameters are retrieved from a central system and the commands are issued to each CPE to be configured. The issued commands have the syntax corresponding to the model of the configured CPE, and in some cases incorporate the retrieved parameters. The invention is particularly useful for service providers who may have the responsibility of configuring numerous CPEs of several different models.
