    摘要: In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) apparatus includes a first communications unit and a processing unit. The first communications unit sends and receives message packets over a wide area network (WAN), and the processing unit controls the sending and receiving of message packets through the first communications unit. The sending and receiving of message packets comprises network traffic, while each packet has a packet size corresponding to an amount of WAN network utilization for each packet. The processing unit is adapted to measure, report, and limit the amount of WAN network utilization.

    摘要: A method and system for remotely managing a bridge device, such as a modem, are disclosed. Management traffic from a service provider can be communicated to a bridge device which lacks a public IP address by sending the management traffic through the bridge device to a router of a LAN. The router then sends the management traffic back to the bridge device. Thus, the service provider can perform management tasks such as troubleshooting, health monitoring, accounting, provisioning, security and firmware upgrades in a manner that is transparent to the user.

    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.
