Abstract
A system and method for for proxy signaling in a digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM) is disclosed. The method comprises receiving an indication from a customer premesis equipment that the customer premesis equipment requires a switched virtual connection to a public network. The method further includes recognizing that the customer premesis equipment does not have signalling capability. The method further includes negotiating through a proxy signalling agent located on the DSLAM with the public network on behalf of the customer premesis equipment. A switched virtual connection is established between the proxy signalling agent and the public network. A cross connect is established between the switched virtual connection and the customer premesis equipment such that the customer premesis equipment can communicate with the public network through the switched virtual connection.
