When providing services to home users, management is a key activity. In-home devices, and especially the Residential Gateway, can use multiple management technologies for multiple management activities: read/write parameters, but also deploy, update, start and stop software components. This paper defines management realms around the Residential Gateway, where different actors perform different management activities, using different technologies. We propose techniques that integrate these technologies (TR-069, UPnP, NetConf and JMX). We also address transient issues related to security.
