Issue/Introduction

Is there a way to automatically have the monthly maintenance downloaded from Broadcom site?

I would like to set up an automated process to get and RECEIVE maintenance for our IVPs on a monthly basis. Does Broadcom have that functionality?

Environment

Release : 14.0

The basics are that monthly CARS (Recommended Service) files become available that include the maintenance for a product from a particular month (yymm). RECEIVE ORDER can be used to download the maintenance.
