Chapter 8 Staging and Provisioning
Introduction
This chapter describes how to stage devices using Rapid Deployment and provisioning using MSP Agent or
AirBEAM Smart.
Staging
Staging is the process of setting up the vehicle computer to download packages for provisioning. The vehicle
computer uses the Rapid Deployment (RD) Client for staging.
RD Client Version 1.9.0
The Rapid Deployment (RD) Client version 1.9.0 facilitates software downloads to a vehicle computer from a
Mobility Services Platform (MSP) Console’s FTP server. The MSP Console is a web-based interface to the wireless
infrastructure monitoring and management tools provided by the MSP Lite or MSP Enterprise server.
When software packages are transferred to the FTP server, the vehicle computer on the wireless network can
download them to the vehicle computer. The location of software packages are encoded in RD bar codes. When
the vehicle computer scans a bar code(s), the software package(s) is downloaded from the FTP server to the
vehicle computer. A single RD bar code can be scanned by multiple vehicle computers.
The Rapid Deployment window displays bar code scan status and provides features for resetting and exiting the
application
NOTE OEM version 04.22.0001 and lower use MSP 2.X RD Client version 1.9.0.
OEM version 05.26.0000 and higher use MSP 3.X RD Client version 3.28.
