Abstract
The present invention includes a number of systems and techniques for service control for a broadband communications system that includes voice, data and multimedia audio and video communication. One variation of the present invention includes service control based on multiple relationships between equipment specific unique media access control (MAC) addresses, system addresses and directory numbers to enable the properly route traffic between the broadband communication system and legacy telephone systems. In this case, one server, for example a dynamic host control protocof (DHCP) server is used to assign system addresses to equipment unique MAC addresses and another server, for example a call manager (CM) server is used to assign directory numbers to the system addresses. Another variation of the present invention includes service control based on multiple relationships between equipment specific unique media access control (MAC) addresses and directory numbers (DNs) to enable the properly route traffic between the broadband communication system and legacy telephone systems. In this case the DHCP server is not needed to assign system addresses to MAC addresses.
