Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate diagnostics reporting using subsystem based light indicators. A CPE device may include one or more light indicators such as LEDs. The CPE device may recognize an event or state associated with the CPE device or a network or device that is associated with the CPE device. The CPE device may map the recognized event or state to an associated combination of light indicator functions, and the CPE device may manipulate the one or more light indicators according to the associated combination of light indicator functions.

Claims (34)

1 . A method comprising:

recognizing a state or event associated with a CPE device;

determining one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event; and

manipulating one or more LEDs of the CPE device according to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

outputting a communication comprising an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprises mapping the recognized state or event to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, wherein the one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of the one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device control an operation of the respective one LED.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with a respective one LED of the one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device comprise a color of illumination, a blink rate, and a state of illumination.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event are stored as a grouping of triple encoded information elements, wherein each respective triple encoded information element comprises an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with an LED corresponding with the respective triple encoded information element.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the recognized state or event is associated with a network that is associated with the CPE device.

8 . A CPE device comprising:

one or more LEDs;

a state or event module that recognizes a state or event associated with the CPE device; and

an LED manipulation module that:

determines one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event; and

manipulates the one or more LEDs according to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

9 . The CPE device of claim 8 , wherein the state or event module further:

outputs a communication comprising an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

10 . The CPE device of claim 8 , wherein determining the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprises mapping the recognized state or event to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

11 . The CPE device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each of the one or more LEDs, wherein the one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of the one or more LEDs control an operation of the respective one LED.

12 . The CPE device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of the one or more LEDs, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with a respective one LED of the one or more LEDs comprise a color of illumination, a blink rate, and a state of illumination.

13 . The CPE device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of the one or more LEDs, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event are stored as a grouping of triple encoded information elements, wherein each respective triple encoded information element comprises an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with an LED corresponding with the respective triple encoded information element.

14 . One or more non-transitory computer readable media having instructions operable to cause one or more processors to perform the operations comprising:

recognizing a state or event associated with a CPE device;

determining one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event; and

manipulating one or more LEDs of the CPE device according to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

15 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the instructions are further operable to cause the one or more processors to perform the operations comprising:

outputting a communication comprising an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

16 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein determining the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprises mapping the recognized state or event to the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event.

17 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, wherein the one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of the one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device control an operation of the respective one LED.

18 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with a respective one LED of the one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device comprise a color of illumination, a blink rate, and a state of illumination.

19 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event comprise one or more LED functions associated with each respective one LED of one or more LEDs associated with the CPE device, and wherein the one or more LED functions associated with the recognized state or event are stored as a grouping of triple encoded information elements, wherein each respective triple encoded information element comprises an identification of the one or more LED functions associated with an LED corresponding with the respective triple encoded information element.

20 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the recognized state or event is associated with a network that is associated with the CPE device.
