Abstract:
1. A method for providing a non-converged network for a single service provider, comprising: dividing a core network into individually managed domains comprising an internet network management domain, a private network management domain, a television services domain, and cell phone services domain, wherein each of the individually managed domains comprises multiprotocol label switching for packets; coupling a management system to each of the individually managed domains, the management system being a trusted host outside of the internet network management domain, outside the private network management domain, and outside the infrastructure network management domain; restricting network elements in each of the individually managed domains from directly transferring the packets to network elements in another one of the individually managed domains; configuring respective domain firewalls at an edge of the individually managed domains in order to individually protect the internet network management domain by an internet domain firewall in a first computing device, to individually protect the private network management domain by a private network domain firewall in a second computing device, to individually protect the cell phone services domain by a cell phone domain firewall in a third computing device, and to individually protect the television services domain by a television domain firewall in a fourth computing device; wherein the first, second, third, and fourth computing devices are separate computing devices from one another; configuring the management system to be outside of and not include the respective domain firewalls, the respective domain firewalls restricting the packets from being received from other domains; and to transfer the packets from one domain to another domain, receiving by the management system the packets from one domain in order to transfer the packets to the other domain after authentication.
