1. A telecommunication network device for implementing the Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) standard during a transition from a coaxial cable network to a fiber-optic network, the network comprising:
a memory including installed firmware for implementing a telecommunication gateway function in accordance with the DOCSIS telecommunication standard; and a processor configured to first update the installed firmware by downloading the update from a first, trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) server over a coaxial cable network, wherein the update download is managed by a provisioning server through a cable modem termination system connecting the network device to the coaxial cable network, wherein the processor is further configured to second update the installed firmware by downloading the update from a second TFTP server over a fiber-optic network, wherein the update download is managed by a remote server through an optical network unit connecting the network device to the fiber optic network, wherein the processor is configured to update the installed firmware by downloading the update from the second TFTP server based on a transition from the coaxial cable network to the fiber-optic network. |
