<p>Files associated with the operation of gateway and client devices in a network may be downloaded with minimal operator intervention. Accordingly, a method includes receiving data including a first file, a first authentication element, and a second authentication element, the first authentication element being unique to a client device associated with the gateway device (430, 650). The method also includes determining if the second authentication element is valid for the gateway device (660) and storing the first authentication element and the second file for the client device if the second authentication element is valid for the gateway device (670). An apparatus includes a receiver (12) that receives data, a processor (14) that determines if the second authentication element is valid for the gateway device (10), and a memory (16) that stores the first authentication element (82) and a portion of the data for the client device if the second authentication element (72) is valid for the gateway device (10).</p> |
