v3.2 Gateway Software Releases
This version can upgrade a previous WMC embedded 3.1 (except for iStation) or be installed “from scratch”.

CAUTION:
Theses packages are only dedicated to connect gateways to WMC v3.2.
They are not intended to be used with WMC v2.3, 3.0 or 3.1.

Specific procedure to follow for USB usage:
This procedure used for automatic deployment can be used to upgrade or install software on a SINGLE or a GROUP of gateways.
You need to use 1 USB stick .
If your KerOS version is lower than 4.0 then you need to plug the USB stick TWICE.
The first USB plug will upgrade the firmware to 4.1 and install/update OpenVPN packages.
The second USB plug will install all others packages: BSCC, SNMP, and Common Packet Forwarder (CPF) packages.
The .tar.gz file provided below is “ready-to-use”. You only need to copy your OpenVPN packages on the USB stick: your OpenVPN secrets files in vpn_packages directory and your OpenVPN config file in the COMMON directory to be able to connect properly to your WMC server.
From v3.1 release, The OpenVPN package is splitted to a secret file (installed once) and a config file (can be installed several times)
The USB tree should contains the following files/folders:
/
├── COMMON # KerOS products packages folder (iBTS, iFemtoCell, iStation)
│ ├── keros_***_klkgw.ipk # Keros firmware package for Wirnet iBTS

To update your gateway, apply the following procedure :
1. Deflate twice the tar.gz file to get .ipk files and put them on your USB stick in the root directory
2. Copy all files located in the folder AUTO_DEPLOY_3.2.5_KEROS_USB_STICK in the root directory
3. Request your VPN package(s) to the Kerlink Support team: support@kerlink.fr (optional: in case of a First Install or Migration)
4. Put your VPN config packages in the COMMON directory to connect to YOUR WMC server (optional: in case of a First Install or Migration)
5. Put your VPN secrets packages of your KerOS products in the vpn_packages directory (optional: in case of a First Install)
6. Plug the USB stick in the gateway USB slot (device must be powered on)
7. Wait the end of the update
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO WAIT FOR THE LED FLASHING to not brick the gateway
