Set Up Default Packages for Instastaging
To use the default staging packages instastaging method, you must use the DNCS to
identify the packages that comprise your default level of services.
Note: See Staging DHCTs For Instastaging (on page 71) for more information on the
process of staging DHCTs using instastaging.
When the DHCT boots into two-way mode for the first time, the DNCS sends all of
the EMMs and package authorizations for the default packages, and the subscriber
begins to receive the default services.
When the DHCT is added to the subscriber's account, it is upgraded or downgraded
to receive only the requested services.
Setting Default Packages
If you are using default staging packages, you must define or identify the default
packages that each DHCT receives when it is installed. You can follow one of the
following procedures:
Create a new default package and provision it.
Choose an existing package.
Notes:
You can specify multiple default packages.
If your site uses Service Disconnect feature (Brick mode), be sure that the default
staging option is selected for the brick mode package.
Creating a New Default Package
1
On the DNCS Administrative Console, click the DNCS tab.
2
Click the System Provisioning tab.
3
Click Package. The Package List window opens.
4
Click File and select New. The Set Up Package window opens.
5
Click in the Package Name field and type the name you will use to identify this
package. You can use up to 20 alphanumeric characters.
Note: In most cases, the package name does not need to follow the package
naming convention that your billing system uses. However, if you use this
package for any other purpose in addition to instastaging DHCTs, the name
should follow the billing system naming conventions. Contact your billing
system vendor if you are not sure of their rules for naming packages. Refer to
your billing system documentation for instructions and specific information.
