This use case shows a first “possible” approach about how the STB should proceed to boot, using OPCH, DVB-IPI and acceding then to GVP backend.
Pre-conditions
- The STB has a valid kernel version provided at manufacturing time
- Somehow, the STB is able to discover the IP and port to access the OPCH Metadata Channel, where basic STB configuration data is sent.
- Basic configuration data sent through the OPCH is (assumption):
- Multicast IP Address and port for each kernel version
- Multicast IP Address and port for Splash Image
- Multicast IP Address and port for DVB-IPI Entry Point channel
- Multicast IP Address and port for Infopush command channel
- Configuration values (tokens), including GVP Application Server URL
Post-conditions
- STB has a valid kernel version, demarcation zones and EPG.
