Fast Refresh List Requirements
To use the Fast Refresh List, your system must support SR 2.2 or later. The capacity
of the Fast Refresh List for SR 2.2 or later is 1,000 DHCTs.
Note: You should work with your billing department to determine the number of
DHCTs on the list, or manually clear the list if you need to stage more DHCTs in a
48-hour period than the Fast Refresh List capacity for your system release.
Instastaging
The instastaging process simplifies EMM installation by automatically sending a hit
to a two-way device when the device boots into two-way mode.
To use instastaging, you must meet the following requirements:
 You must be using System Release (SR) 2.5/3.5 or SR 3.3, or later.
 Your billing system must be configured to assign an Out-Of-Service status to
devices when they are placed in inventory.
 Your DNCS must be configured to support instastaging.
 The device must be able to boot into two-way mode.
 If you are using CableCARD modules, they must be installed in a two-way host.
