Abstract:
An unregistered cable modem is in a cable operator network having a computer, a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server, a spoofing domain name system (DNS) server and a good DNS server, a captive portal application, and a trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) server. The cable modem is provisioned by the cable modem obtaining a configuration, rebooting, and activating the configuration. The computer obtains a plurality of computer configuration parameters including an IP address of the spoofing DNS. The spoofing DNS server answers an HTTP request from the computer with an IP address associated with the captive portal application. The captive portal obtains an activation code from the computer, verifies the activation code is correct, and forces the cable modem to reboot.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for provisioning an unregistered cable modem in a cable operator network comprising a computer, a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server, a spoofing domain name system (DNS) server and a good DNS server, a captive portal application, and a trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) server, the method comprising the steps of:\n the cable modem obtaining a configuration file for an unregistered cable modem comprising a configuration, rebooting, and activating the configuration; the computer obtaining a plurality of computer configuration parameters comprising an IP address of the spoofing DNS; answering, by the spoofing DNS server, an HTTP request from the computer with an IP address associated with the captive portal application; obtaining, by the captive portal, an activation code from the computer and verifying the activation code is correct; and if the activation code is correct, forcing, by the captive portal, the cable modem to reboot.
