Abstract:
Technologies are disclosed that allow the firmware of a remotely located target device to be configured. The target device can receive a command to reboot into a special remote setup mode for remote configuration. Once in the remote setup mode, the firmware listens for and can respond to HTTP requests for information on configurable data and instructions to update the configurable data.
