Using Wavelink Avalanche
The Wavelink Avalanche client management system uses three main
components to help you easily manage your network.
The enabler is already installed on your IF61. Avalanche uses a
hierarchical file system organized into software packages and
software collections:
• Software packages are groups of files for an application that
resides on the device.
• Software collections are logical groups of software packages.
For more information, see the Wavelink Avalanche documentation
and online help, or visit the Wavelink web site at www.wavelink.com.
To use Avalanche to manage the IF61, you need to enable Avalanche
as described in the next procedure.
