Abstract

Techniques are provided herein for tagging configurable objects. The configurable object is part of a cable system and is configured to be managed by a cable modem termination system (CMTS). In response to determining that a tag rule matches one or more properties of the configurable object, the first tag is associated with the configurable object. A record of the configurable object and the associated tag is generated or stored within the CMTS.
