Managed Router SRX1500
Hello. Fall 2020 we signed up for the managed router and Comcast installed the Juniper SRX1500. It has been working fine except it’s a magic black box... there is no login, no admin, no reporting, no notifications, no settings, no configuration. People I have asked look at me like I’m asking an unknown question.
Anyone else with this service/device that can share your experience?
Router connects to Ciena 3930 on one end (fiber) and our network switch on the other.
Accepted Solution

Was able to connect with the Active Core support group at Comcast who handles managed SRX routers. Bottom line, there is no access to the router. When you contract this service with Comcast, the whole concept is to put the gateway in the hands on Comcast. There are no alerts, notifications, reporting, etc that can be configured (for the end-user/customer). In the interest of transparency, this is what sales advertised/sold to me, and I accepted, but I still found it hard to believe and was expecting at least some level of access. Case closed.

I'm having a hard time with this question on the PM to Comcast support. The question keeps bouncing from rep to rep based on who's available and no one is addressing the initial question. Is it possible to move away from the PM and address in the message exchange here? That would be my preference, which is how community boards are intended to work. You can validate my credentials in the PM if needed.

Thank you for the answer on separate rings by HG. Please log as a feature request if you are able. Basically an extension which is a member of one or more HGs could have the option to select a different ring tone for each source (direct, HG, HG2, etc.).
Now on to the question on this thread, which is about the managed router / SRX1500.

@Comcast_Marcos thank you for your reply, but it has nothing to do with my question (I don't have a Comcast modem). Let me state the question again:
"Hello. Fall 2020 we signed up for the managed router and Comcast installed the Juniper SRX1500.
