Title: RE: [smartBridges] MikroTik and simpleDeploy

I still prefer to do that on my side. You can do a firmware upgrade over the wireless side. It's not a tool I would want to mass deploy to all my clients. The potential for disaster is to great.   Call me a control freak, but the more power you give to the customer, even if it's intended to help, the more trucks are gonna roll...

The address and the password could be hardcoded (encrypted in a ini file with the exe) before it is given to all the clients. This would prevent truck roles. Clients could have an optional button to "Revert" if they have problems with there connection after the upgrade. In this way they just have to run this program every so often (when we tell them to from our website or mass email) the program keeps the settings all saved and when they run "Update My Wireless!" It checks for latest version of Update.exe and Update.ini and also for the latest firmware.dat and downloads them all if it isnt the latest. And then upgrades there radio automatically no questions asked, it then sends a email to the system admin telling it that that users ip address (autodetected via software) has upgraded and to what version and any debug information. Then theres the other link to "Revert to previous wireless" That would degrade the unit to an archived version of the software.   This is just my idea hows it sounds guys   From: Seeni Mohamed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 25, 2003 5:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]     Standard TFTP protocol.   Seeni, SB support   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Chance Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2003 4:42 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] MikroTik and simpleDeploy   Seeni is it standard TFTP or modified?
