Canopy Network Updater Tool (CNUT)
CNUT (Canopy Network Updater Tool) is the stand-alone software update tool for PMP 450 Series products.
The Canopy Network Updater Tool:
• automatically discovers all network elements
• executes a UDP command that initiates and terminates the Auto-update mode within APs. This command
is both secure and convenient:
o For security, the AP accepts this command from only the IP address that you specify in the
Configuration page of the AP.
o For convenience, Network Updater automatically sets this Configuration parameter in the APs to the
IP address of the Network Updater server when the server performs any of the update commands.
• allows you to choose among updating
o your entire network.
o only elements that you select.
o only network branches that you select.
• provides a Script Engine that you can use with any script that
o you define.
o Cambium supplies.
