software on the primary and secondary machines.
Software Patches
Bluesocket may occasionally release small software fixes, known as patches, which you
will need to install on the BSC. These are not the same as BSC runtime software
upgrades, which usually involve major changes in functionality or performance. Also,
unlike upgrades, patches do not overwrite the entire current runtime software image, but
only those files in the image that have changed. This section contains the following topics:
