摘要： A method and system facilitates enhanced communication between a LAN and a WAN by determining which IP device of the LAN is a gateway and then restricting communication between the LAN and the WAN such that the communication is routed through the gateway. Determining which IP device of the LAN is a gateway can comprise using DHCP protocol to implement a provisioning and setup flow between a WAN bridge and gateway. By restricting communication between the LAN and the WAN such that it is routed through the gateway, features of the gateway such as a firewall and/or parental controls, can be advantageously utilized.

摘要： A method, system and device for deterring spam on a communication medium are disclosed. The method includes detecting a call with a device for accessing the communication medium, wherein calls thereon include Internet Protocol traffic. The device includes an interface for allowing a user of to flag the call as a spam call (e.g., SPIT, SPIM, etc). Upon the flag, a signaling message associated with the call is accessed. The signaling message is stored as information relating to spam call sources. Upon detecting a subsequent call, a signaling message associated with the subsequent call is compared with the information relating to spam call sources. Upon a match between the signaling message associated with the subsequent call and the information relating to spam call sources, the subsequent call is blocked.

摘要： Methods and systems are provided for enabling a service provider to manage a service node that is separated from the service provider by a firewall. A dual-mode mobile device establishes separate secure connections with the service provider and the service node. The mobile device can then serve as a bridge between the service provider and the service node so that a secure management session can be initiated between the service provider and the service node. A method of managing a service node includes: establishing a first secure connection between a dual-mode mobile device and the service node; establishing a second secure connection between the dual-mode mobile device and a remote system; and initiating a secure management session between the service node and the remote system via the first secure connection and the second secure connection.
