Javier, There's really no good way to handle this without routing or tunneling that I've been able to find in a very long time. (SD-WAN can help, but it's just a fancy way to tunnel in this regard.) It's pretty amazing that this is such an issue, but it remains so. I have tried to work around this using BSoD ( https://specification-search.cablelabs.com/business-services-over-docsis-lay... ) but we eventually abandoned the effort because it rapidly became to expensive to scale to solve a niche problem.

That's surprising to me, I have no intentions to do routing with our cable subscribers, that seems like a headache for both sides Today we have specific ranges within subnets from where we assign IPs to customers, my main problem that I'm trying to get around is having to change a customer static IP if their node gets splitter and I have to mode them to a different CMTS
Thanks,

I have seen (Charter) and heard quite a few run RIP or some other routing protocol on the CPE.
Yep, it's RIP. They don't support IPv6 on this either. I've been asking for IPv6 since 2006, it's always next year.
