Synchronizing with the Server
When the synchronization process is initiated, the AirBEAM Smart Client attempts to open an FTP session using
the AirBEAM Smart Client configuration. Once connected, the client processes the specified packages. Packages
are loaded only if the server version of a given package is different from the version loaded on the client. Once the
upload process is complete, the AirBEAM Smart Client closes the FTP session with the server.
The AirBEAM Smart Client can launch an FTP session with the server either manually, when initiated by the user,
or automatically.
