Software updates
Performing a scheduled software update
The service controller can automatically retrieve and install software from a remote Web site
identified by its URL.
To schedule software installation, follow this procedure:
1. Enable Scheduled install.
2. For Day of week select a specific day or Everyday and set Time of day.
3. For URL, specify an ftp or http address like this:
ftp://username:password@192.168.132.11/newsoftware.cim
http://192.168.132.11/newsoftware.cim
4. Validate the URL.
5. To commit the schedule, select Save.
6. Or, to commit the schedule and also update the software immediately, select Save and
Install Now.
Note Before a scheduled software update is performed, only the first few bytes of the software file
are downloaded to determine if the software is newer than the current. If it is not, the
download stops and the software is not updated at this time. Which means that if by accident
you try to upload the same software, it will not affect the operation of your network.
