Abstract
Disclosed are a system and method of processing upstream bandwidth allocation messages in a downstream management message received at a client termination device. Bandwidth allocation elements based upon selected ones of the bandwidth allocation messages are stored in a data buffer. The stored bandwidth allocation elements may be accessed from the buffer in response to a validation of a cyclic redundancy code in the downstream management message.
