The OTA Deployment Center allows device users to access and download Afaria clients and runtimes over-the-air, rather than needing cradle the device and connect to the network.
OTA deployment is recommended for production environments that require you to administer many device users.
- Install the Afaria SMS gateway, which is a required communication path for the OTA Deployment Center.
See Afaria Reference Manual | Platform > Server Configuration > Properties > SMS Gateway Installation.
- Set up the OTA Deployment Center.
See Installing Afaria > Setting up the OTA Deployment Center. For details about requirements, see Afaria Release Notes > Component and Feature Requirements.
