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 8):
A method for provisioning for a subscriber an embedded multimedia terminal adapter (eMTA) comprising a cable modem in a cable operator network comprising, a phone connected to a multimedia terminal adapter (MTA) portion of the eMTA, a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server, a domain name system (DNS) server, a captive portal application, and a trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) server, a (simple network management protocol) (SNMP) provisioning server, and a softswitch, and an interactive voice response (IVR), the method comprising the steps of:\n the cable modem obtaining a configuration file for an unregistered cable modem, rebooting and activating this configuration; the MTA obtaining a plurality of configuration parameters comprising an FQDN of the softswitch; the MTA requesting registration from the softswitch; the softswitch receiving a phone call request from the MTA and redirecting the call to the IVR; verifying, by the IVR, a quality level of a connection and asking for an activation code; and forcing, by the SNMP provisioning server, the cable modem to reboot.
