registry settings are included, but commented out, in the radio network registry

Use DHCP This check box control specifies whether the AirBEAM Smart Client uses the
bootfile DHCP response option 67 to specify the Package and Package 1 parameters.
If enabled, special RF network registry settings are required to force the DHCP
server to return the "Bootfile name" field (option 67). The special RF network

Synchronizing with the Server

When the synchronization process is initiated, the AirBEAM Smart Client attempts to open
an FTP session using the AirBEAM Smart Client configuration. Once connected, the client
processes the specified packages. Packages are loaded only if the server version of a
given package is different from the version loaded on the client. Once the upload process
is complete, the AirBEAM Smart Client closes the FTP session with the server.
The AirBEAM Smart Client can launch an FTP session with the server either manually,
when initiated by the user, or automatically.
