SOFTWARE PACKAGE MANAGEMENT
The OmniAccess 5740 USG is a modular system. From the hardware side, this
means that different physical parts of the system can be removed, inserted, and
upgraded independent of each other. From the software side, it means that
software modules can be upgraded individually.
Most of the applications running on the system can be upgraded independent of
each other and without system downtime. The exception is the base Linux
operating system and the most basic building blocks in the system which
sometimes require a reload of the specific card or the whole system for a software
upgrade to take effect.
Before upgrading a software module, check the current versions of the modules,
read the release notes to make sure you are aware of any potential conflicts
between different module versions.
