Abstract
A service provider server is provided for use with a network node, and a cable modem. The service provider server includes a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the service provider server to provide a first downstream service flow to the cable modem by way of the network node, the first downstream service flow having a first set of privileges, receive a first upstream service flow from the cable modem by way of the network node, provide a second downstream service flow to the cable modem by way of the network node, the second downstream service flow having a second set of privileges that are different from the first set of privileges, and receive a second upstream service flow from the cable modem by way of the network node.
