Abstract
The present application describes systems and methods for secured network information transmission. A network tunnel may be established from a customer premises equipment (CPE) to a routing device at a provider site. The network tunnel may traverse over one or more networks while maintaining a secure path for data. A customer may indicate a chosen configuration for a CPE, and a device at a provider site, a customer device, and/or the CPE itself may automatically, or manually, configure the CPE based on the chosen configuration to allow and/or disallow certain customer network information from being received and/or transmitted through the network tunnel.
