298 === 3.1.1 How Package-Auto-Update works? ===
299
300
301 By default, LPS8v2 / MS20 series products have an auto-update feature for main packages. The device will connect to Dragino's auto-update server and check for updates. 
302
303
304 (% style="color:blue" %)**When devices will check for updates**?
305
306 * Devices will check for updates for every boot.
307 * Devices will check for updates on every day midnight.
308
309 (% style="color:blue" %)**What packages will be checked for updates**?
310
311 dragino-httpd ~-~- Main Web UI http configuration
312
