The Universal Firmware Update feature enables the UMS to check for new firmware updates and download the desired firmware to a WebDAV directory or FTP server. The connection to the IGEL download server can be direct or through a proxy.
For more information about this feature, see (12.04.120-en) Universal Firmware Update 2 in the UMS manual.
The Universal Firmware Update feature is relevant for IGEL OS 11 devices and earlier, not for IGEL OS 12 devices.
