Appendix A Deploying the PC Client

Along with the initial load, Nortel Networks delivers the following:

•Java Network Launch Protocol (JNLP) file: pcclient.jnlp

•Zip file containing latest code resources: pcclientcode.zip

System administrators need to perform the following steps to deploy Multimedia PC Client loads.

At the management pc,

1Unzip the zip fle containing the code resources (pcclientcode.zip) onto any machine connected to the network. Make sure that you preserve the paths (for example, the checkbox “Use folder names” in Winzip should be checked).

2Identify the Provisioning Module server(s) on which to deploy the load.

3Customization of the JNLP file (pcclient.jnlp) is possible by modifying certain attributes. For example, if this update is considered to be a critical one, the critical value can be checked. If end users are not prompted for confirmation when updates are applied, then the confirm value can be assigned as false. Modification of title and icon for the confirmation dialog is also possible.

4Use a secure File Transfer Protocol (sFTP) tool to perform the following tasks:

a Connect to the server.

b Upload the pcclient.jnlp to /IMS/web/data/web/webapps/prov/pcclient.jnlp

c Upload the unzipped code resource files to /IMS/web/data/web/webapps/prov/pcclientclode.

It is possible to perform steps 1 - 4 directly on the Provisioning servers without FTP.
