Abstract
A first device may establish a connection with a second device, and may provide a connection check RPC message to the second device. The first device may receive a verification RPC message from the second device, and may provide, to the second device, a sync domains RPC request that includes a first list of active domains with associated address pools. The first device may receive, from the second device, a sync domains RPC response that includes threshold values for the active domains included in the first list of active domains, and may provide, to the second device, a sync pools RPC request that includes a first list of address pools associated with the active domains. The first device may receive, from the second device, a sync pools RPC response that includes confirmation of the first list of address pools, and may allocate addresses of an address pool to a CPE.
