CABLE OVERVIEW

This section describes some of the concepts related to the Cable screens.
3.1.1

DOCSIS

The Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) is a
telecommunications standard that defines the provision of data services) Internet
access) over a traditional cable TV (CATV) network. Your CGN supports DOCSIS
version 3.0.

IP ADDRESSES AND SUBNETS

Every computer on the Internet must have a unique Internet Protocol (IP) address.
The IP address works much like a street address, in that it identifies a specific
location to which information is transmitted. No two computers on a network can have
the same IP address.
