Patent attributes
A server device may store information identifying that one or more first user devices, currently connected to a network device via a particular band, should continue to communicate via the particular band when a connection threshold, associated with the particular band, has been exceeded. The particular band may be associated with a multicast service that provides multicast content to the one or more first user devices via the particular band. The server device may determine that the connection threshold has been exceeded; identify a second user device, currently connected to the network device via the particular band, that should no longer communicate via the particular band when the connection threshold has been exceeded disconnected; and prevent the second user device from communicating via the particular band based on determining that the connection threshold has been exceeded and identifying the second user device.
