169 === 3.1.1 How Package-Auto-Update works? ===
170
171
172 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. 
173
174
175 (% style="color:blue" %)**When devices will check for updates**?
176
177 * Devices will check for updates for every boot.
178 * Devices will check for updates on every day midnight.
179
180 (% style="color:blue" %)**What packages will be checked for updates**?
181
182 dragino-httpd ~-~- Main Web UI http configuration
183
184 dragino-sid  ~-~- SN write and read tool
185
186 dragino-ui  ~-~- Gateway Web UI package
187
188 draginofwd   ~-~- UDP packet forwarder, LoRa Base Station
189
190 draginoups   ~-~- Miscellaneous between different versions

235 === 3.2.1 Overview ===
236
237
238 Customers can use their own package maintenance system instead of using the default one from Dragino. They need to set up a package maintenance system for Debian. Lots of instructions are available in Internet, below is a reference instruction.
