ConteraCMR | Update Your Server Software

By default, administrators can download and install server software updates remotely through  Web Services. Updates can also be performed manually via selected files or custom URLs. If an update is available, the user will see a message along with an option to install. The message will display the updated version and whether the update is optional, recommended, or critical.

Note: It's strongly recommended not to update the Recorder server firmware if No ConteraWS is availible.
