Abstract:
Systems and methods for the remote update and distribution of configuration information in a communication network made up of a plurality of nodes some of which are mobile and some of which are fixed in location. Updated information for configuring the nodes may be updated using different types of routes through the communication network, where some routes may be direct from a node to a location of an update, some routes may pass through another node, and some routes may be used only when a certain communication technology is available. The nodes may be dynamically configured based on a number of factors.

Claim (Index 32):
A method of operating a node of a communication network comprising a plurality of nodes, the plurality of nodes communicatively coupled to a computer system that is remote from a first node of the plurality of nodes and that is operably coupled to storage containing updated information for one or more of the plurality of nodes, the first node configured to communicate wirelessly with the plurality of nodes, the method comprising:\n transmitting a first plurality of parameters regarding the first node to the computer system; determining whether updated information for the first node is available in the storage, using a response received from the computer system in regards to the transmitted first plurality of parameters; if it is determined that updated information for the first node is not available, delaying transmission of a second plurality of parameters regarding the first node to the computer system to determine whether updated information for the first node is available in the storage, according to the received response; and if it is determined that updated information for the first node is available:\n downloading the available updated information for the first node using a plurality of properties of the updated information contained in the received response, the plurality of properties comprising an update location and an indication of a type of route to be used to download the updated information, \n decrypting the updated information for the first node and applying the decrypted updated information at the first node, and \n transmitting a notification to the computer system from the first node of successful download and application of the decrypted updated information at the first node.
