Just wanted to reach out and get an idea how is people managing customers with static Ips, more specifically on Docsis 
networks where the customer could be moved between cmts's when a node is split

Around here, Comcast seems to provision a GRE tunnel from the CPE back to some router within their network and run it over whatever IP address the CMTS hands out to the modem. Not very efficient, and it mandates that you use their CPE (they won't give you the necessary info to set it up yourself).

AFAIK, such service is only available on their "business class" DOCSIS product and is upcharged even then.
