The LANCOM Auto Updater allows the automatic updating of on-site LANCOM devices without further user intervention. LANCOM devices can search for new software updates, and download and install them without any user interaction. You can choose whether to install security updates, release updates, or all updates automatically. If you choose not to use automatic updates, the feature can still be used to check for the availability of new updates.
The LANCOM Auto Updater contacts the LANCOM update server to check for updates and firmware downloads. Communication is based on HTTPS. When contacting the server, the LANCOM device uses previously installed TLS certificates for validation. Furthermore, the firmware files for current LANCOM devices are signed. The LANCOM Auto Updater validates this signature before uploading any firmware.
