Overview
This section describes how to register the BFS server with the BFS client. When a
server registers with the BFS client, the BFS regularly broadcasts data held on the
server to the access network. The BFS sends this data on data carousels to all set-tops
in the system. However, set-tops retrieve information carried on data carousels for
only the applications they are authorized to receive.
