So in most cases I'm aware of, the cable provider did not use RIP directly to a customer-managed device. The cable operator would deploy their own managed device, implement RIP and the appropriate keychains between the operator-managed premise device and the CMTS. As for the use cases, RIP was implemented to address the specific 'recombine' use case where one day (or evening) cable customer attachments could be moved from one CMTS to another. Instrumenting that with DHCP or TR69 usually required other teams' involvement and didn't allow portability. With IPv6 you get PD which helps immensely.

I have seen (Charter) and heard quite a few run RIP or some other routing protocol on the CPE.
Yep, it's RIP. They don't support IPv6 on this either. I've been asking for IPv6 since 2006, it's always next year. -- Bryan Fields 727-409-1194 - Voice http://bryanfields.net
