Telepresence Deploy XML APP

Simple app to deploy packages to Cisco Telepresence apps. Branding for CE9.2.1+ and backup bundles for CE9.3+ devices is supported. Backup bundles is a new features for CE9.3+ firmware.

Currently capable of deploying:

Custom Branding with little fuss. Checks the endpoint if its branding capable via firmware version. Takes care of reading CSV files for endpoints and also base64 encoding of image files.
Using the branding option the script will check your endpoint version and deploy branding to endpoints capable or wallpaper for non-branding capable devices. SX10 check is supported. SX10 has no branding option even if Firmware is CE9.3.
Deploy wallpaper images (also disables branding)to all your endpoints instead of using the branding option.
Backup bundle to multiple endpoints. Will create the backup bundle checksum for deployment and acts as http server for package delivery.
