Abstract
One embodiment of the disclosures made herein is a method for facilitating prescribed application functionality via a network element adapted for providing Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexing (DSLAM) functionality. In accordance with such a method, a first functionality server implements server-specific functionality whereby information associated with the server-specific functionality is generated. In response to implementing the server-specific functionality, information in a universal interface format is transmitted for reception by a first access server from a first functionality server. The first access server is connected between the network element and the first functionality server. After receiving the information, the information is translated from the universal interface format to a system-compatible interface format. The translating is performed by the first access server and the system-specific interface format is different than the universal interface format. After translating the information to the system-specific format, the information is transmitted from the first access server toward the system interface. The first access server is connected between the ne…
