CableCARD MMI Copy Protection Screen 
At the request of customers, Cisco has changed the Man Machine Interface (MMI) 
copy protection screen to provide additional information to be used for setting the 
service level of an OpenCable host in the billing system. The display of the copy 
protection MMI screen is independent of whether the host is one-way 
(unidirectional) or two-way (bidirectional). SR 4.2 provides support for this new 
feature. 
The MMI Copy Protection screen is configurable from the following new GUI on the 
DNCS: 
Quick Path: DNCS Administrative Console > DNCS tab > Home Element 
Provisioning tab > CableCARD > Configure CableCARD Server > MMI Screen 
Format
  
The following illustration shows an example of the Set CableCARD MMI Copy 
Protection screen. 
 
Support for New Organizationally Unique Identifiers (OUIs) 
SR 4.2 contains support for new Organizationally Unique Identifiers (OUIs). 
Currently the system supports the OUI values of 00:02:DE, 00:0A:73, 00:0F:21, and 
00:11:E6. If you receive PowerKEY CableCARD modules that use a new OUI, you 
must contact Cisco Services to have a technical support engineer update your DNCS 
database.
