FreePBX Open Source - Upgrading DPMA on FreePBX Manually

From the Asterisk CLI, you can confirm the current versions of Asterisk and DPMA as well as the DPMA license details

> core show version
Asterisk 13.29.2 built by mockbuild @ jenkins2.schmoozecom.net on a x86_64 running Linux on 2019-12-17 03:57:42 UTC
 
 
> digium_phones show version
Digium Phone Module for Asterisk Version 13.0_3.4.3
 
 
> digium_phones license status
OK, Valid product license found

You also need to know if the OS is 32 or 64 bit. You can get that from the bash prompt with the command:

# uname -a
Linux 63251293.deployments.pbxact.com 2.6.32-642.6.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 26 06:52:09 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

For the above example, we have Asterisk 13, DPMA version 3.4.3 on a 64 bit OS. We want to upgrade DPMA to current.
