and the site device. Before performing any procedures using VoyenceControl, the device must
be discovered in VoyenceControl, and the device configurations must be recently pulled to the
UNC database. See the following ASTRO

25 system documentation: Unified Network
Configurator manual and Securing Protocols with SSH manual.
NOTICE: The names EMC Smarts

Network Configuration Manager and
VoyenceControl are used interchangeably for this product.
3.7
Software Download Manager
The Software Download Manager (SWDL) is an application that can transfer only, install only, or
transfer and install new software to devices. The new software can be installed either locally at a site or
on the Network Management subsystem. Individual devices not connected to the system can be
downloaded using single device mode.
NOTICE: Throughout this manual, the name SWDL is used to refer to the Software Download
Manager application.
Software Download Security Transfer Modes
A software download can be performed using the following security transfer modes:
Clear SWDL
Transfers the software without security, based on the File-Transfer Protocol (FTP)
Secure SWDL
Transfers the software as encrypted, based on the Secure File-Transfer Protocol (SFTP)
NOTICE: All secure sequential and simultaneous transfers use the Diffie-Hellman group
exchange. The Diffie-Hellman group exchange is used for devices supporting Diffie-Hellman
group exchange. The Diffie-Hellman group exchange enhances the security of Secure Shell
(SSH) protocol initial key exchange. See the Software Download Manager manual for details.
Before initiating transfer, SWDL connects to the site in the zone to discover all devices. The transfer
mode of all devices is displayed in the SWDL window. It is important that all devices have the same
SWDL transfer mode. Otherwise, SWDL flags a mismatch of the SWDL transfer modes across site
devices.
SWDL provisions the credentials for Secure SWDL as part of initiating the SWDL operation. No user
intervention is required. For a single device, Secure or Clear SWDL is configured based on the SWDL
Transfer Mode configuration within the Configuration/Service Software (CSS). The Unified Network
Configurator (UNC) can be used to schedule and configure all devices in the system at once.
For information on how to configure the secure or clear SWDL transfer mode, see the Unified Network
Configurator manual and “Configuring Devices for Security” in the CSS Online Help.
Software Download Transfer Methods
A software download can be accomplished in two ways:
Site Software Download
Allows you to transfer and install application software from any location within a network. The
Software Download Manager resides on the Network Management Client computer and a service
computer/laptop loaded with the CSS application. From either of the computers, you can select
device types to download software. Site Software Download allows you to select the zone, site,
device types, and software download operation to perform. When performing a site software
download, the site controller coordinates the software transfer for all trunked base radios, receivers,
comparators, and reference distribution modules installed at the site. A site software download can
only be performed on a trunked ASTRO
®
25 system.
