Time Of Day established

The system established the current system time via the DOCSIS
cable modem registration process. The system time is used by the
firewall to timestamp events.

Public Network Interface up
(IP address x.x.x.x)

The firewall successfully obtained an IP address for the public
network (WAN) interface via DHCP. This process takes place after
the cable modem registration process successfully completes.
