set-top can operate in that hub without being authorized for a specific 
package.

Deleting a Hub 
You may want to delete a hub because you are no long using it, or because you need 
to redefine the headend or network ID. 
Important: Before you can delete a hub, you must delete all of the network elements 
that are associated with it, including any OIT bridges.  
1  Are there any node sets associated with this hub? 
 
If yes, delete those node sets first. When finished, return to this procedure. 
 
If no, go to step 2. 
2  From the DNCS Administrative Console, click the DNCS tab, and then click the 
Network Element Provisioning tab. 
3  Click Hub. The Hub Summary window opens. 
4  Click the Select button on the row containing the hub you want to delete. 
5  Click the link Delete Selected Hub. A confirmation window opens.
