Abstract
A method for initialization of a group of customer premises equipment devices (CPEs) during a training that registers capabilities of the CPEs is disclosed, wherein at least one CPE registers late to the training and cannot be registered. The method includes determining capabilities of the CPEs during a joining phase of the training, wherein it is determined whether a CPE device is capable of employing vectoring, and placing in a hold status the at least one CPE that registers late by keeping a line active that is coupled to the at least one CPE. The method further includes providing another joining phase after the joining phase to register the at least one CPE that registers late.

A method for initialization of a group of customer premises equipment devices (CPEs) during a training that registers capabilities of the CPEs, wherein at least one CPE registers late to the training and cannot be registered;
- the method comprising:
- determining capabilities of the CPEs during a joining phase of the training, wherein it is determined whether a CPE device is capable of employing vectoring;
- placing in a hold status the at least one CPE that registers late by keeping a line active that is coupled to the at least one CPE;
- and
- providing another joining phase after the joining phase to register the at least one CPE that registers late.
An apparatus for initialization of a group of customer premises equipment devices (CPEs) during a training that registers capabilities of the CPEs, wherein at least one CPE registers late to the training and cannot be registered, wherein capabilities of the CPEs are determined during a joining phase of the training that determines whether a CPE device is capable of employing vectoring, the apparatus comprising:
- a vector engine placing the at least one CPE in a hold status that registers late by keeping a line active that is coupled to the at least one CPE;
- and
- wherein the vector engine provides another joining phase after the joining phase to register the at least one CPE that registers late.
