HTML5 Upgrade Out-of-date Software

In Niagara 4.14 and later, there is added browser support the Upgrade Out-of-Date Software step. When processed, the versions of software on the target host(s) are compared with the latest versions in the Supervisor’s software database. If the system finds newer versions, this step installs them to the target host(s). The “HTML5” version of this view is a web-browser-based implementation and it provides the same functions as the Workbench view.
