Checking for updates
It is a good idea to regularly check for updates to the main Cisco Telepresence Server
software image on the Cisco web site. This section describes how to upgrade the
Cisco Telepresence Server using the web. Note that you can also upgrade the Cisco
Telepresence Server using FTP; this can be more reliable if you are upgrading the
device remotely. Upgrading your device via FTP is described in the release notes that
are available alongside the software images in the support section of the web site.
