+
+Description
+-----------
+
+CAPsMAN can upgrade CAP devices. This script runs a rolling upgrade for
+out-of-date CAP devices. The idea is to have just a fraction of devices
+reboot at a time, having the others to serve wireless connectivity.
+
+Note that the script does not wait for the CAPs to reconnect, it just defers
+the upgrade commands. The more CAPs you have the more will upgrade in
+parallel.
+
+Requirements and installation
+-----------------------------
+
+Just install the script on CAPsMAN device.
+Depending on whether you use `wifi` package (`/interface/wifi`) or legacy
+wifi with CAPsMAN (`/caps-man`) you need to install a different script.
+
+For `wifi`:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-rolling-upgrade.wifi;
+
+For legacy CAPsMAN:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-rolling-upgrade.capsman;
+
+Usage and invocation
+--------------------
+
+This script is intended as an add-on to
+[capsman-download-packages](capsman-download-packages.md), being invoked by
+that script when required.
+
+Alternatively run it manually:
+
+ /system/script/run capsman-rolling-upgrade.wifi;
