Abstract:

An approach is provided for a multiservice tester. A connection over an access link providing a customer premise with connectivity to a plurality of telecommunication services provided over a data network is established at a test device. Testing the plurality of telecommunication services is initiated by either physically connecting to one or more end devices or invoking an emulation application for emulating the one or more end devices. The plurality of telecommunication services are verified based on performance of the connection. A secure connection may be established with a provisioning system maintained by a service provider of the plurality of telecommunication services, wherein the secure connection may be established via the access link or via one or more wireless network access links. The provisioning system may facilitate verification of the plurality of telecommunication services and/or troubleshooting the plurality of telecommunication services.
