HX options

Enterprise package
delivery
Enterprise package delivery (EPD) provides a reliable means of
transferring large files from a centralized location to an unlimited
number of receivers. Packages or files are enclosed in an envelope
that is labelled with several parameters that define its source,
destination, start/stop times, description, and so forth. Packages
for delivery are posted to a customer-supplied server (which can
be a simple Windows XP workstation) located at the HX gateway
and running the EPD server software. The server then broadcasts
these packages to the satellite routers.
The Enterprise Package Delivery software includes a client
application that runs on target computers on the remote LAN. The
client receives (or catches) the package files delivered with the
EPD feature. Windows and Linux clients are available.
The client can be configured to associate a process (for example,
an executable file) with received packages meeting predefined
criteria, and to launch the associated process automatically upon
receipt of a package.
Figure 17 illustrates the Enterprise Package
Delivery feature.
