Rapid Deployment
The Rapid Deployment (RD) Client 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.
