A method and apparatus for allocating a plurality of tuning devices (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) to access services provided by a broadband network head-end (105). The tuning devices (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) are controlled by a client device (120, 130, 140) which schedules the tuning devices (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) to access the services (110). The client device (120, 130, 140) receives a plurality of requests for the services (110) provided by the broadband network head-end (105). The number of requests exceeds the number of tuning devices (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B). The client device (120, 130, 140) automatically assigns each of the tuning devices (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) to a specific one of the services (110).

Procédé et dispositif servant à affecter une pluralité de syntoniseurs (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) à des services d'accès constitués par l'extrémité de tête d'un réseau à bande large (105). Ces syntoniseurs (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) sont contrôlés par un dispositif client (120, 130, 140) qui programme ces syntoniseurs (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) afin qu'ils accèdent au service (110). Le dispositif client (120, 130, 140) reçoit une pluralité de demandes pour les services (110) fournis par l'extrémité avant du réseau à bande large (105). Le nombre de demandes dépasse le nombre de syntoniseurs (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B). Le dispositif client (120, 130, 140) affecte automatiquement chacun des syntoniseurs (125A, 125B, 135A, 135B, 145A, 145B) à un service spécifique parmi ces services (110).
