There is no regioning in the .PUP files i.e. they are the same for all different regions (if you were looking for regioninfo, [[SKU_Regioning|see here]]). The PS3 however gets the [[ps3-updatelist.txt]] from different servers, depending on the region of that model (last 2 numbers in the CECHxxXX SKU name).

Contrarly to PS3, there is no regioning in the .PUP files: they are the same for all different regions.


Like on PS3, there is no regioning in the .PUP files: they are the same for all different regions. However, the PS Vita gets the psp2-updatelist.xml from different servers, depending on the region of that model.

On retail (CEX) consoles, when you check for updates via WiFi in settings the console will download an XML file based on the console's region code. For example on PS Vitas sold within the United States the URL for the XML file is <code>http://fus01.psp2.update.playstation.net/update/psp2/list/us/psp2-updatelist.xml</code>.

When selecting "Update via connecting to PC", the console connects to Content Manager Assistant installed on a PC and then CMA downloads the psp2-updatelist.xml file and the PUP files from PC side and sends it back to the PS Vita. Because of this, by using a custom Content Manager Assistant such as QCMA, you can send whatever psp2-updatelist.xml you want to the PS Vita. This is also what happens with "Update via connecting to PS3".
When selecting "Update via connecting to PC" the console instead connected to Content Mannager Assistant and then CMA downloads the updatelist file and the PUP files from PC side and sends it back to the vita, because of this using a custom Content Mannager Assistant such as QCMA you can just send whatever psp2-updatelist you want to the vita. this is also what happens with "Update via connecting to PS3".


On PS Vita DevKit and TestKit, you can configure your own URL for the psp2-updatelist.xml file in <code>Debug Settings > System Update</code> and this setting can be overridden by placing a file at <code>ux0:/PSP2/UPDATE/SERVER_URL.TXT</code> or <code>host0:/PSP2/UPDATE/SERVER_URL.TXT</code>.

Using a webserver (apache, lighttpd, nginx, etc.) and proxy/firewall to catch http://f**01.psp2.update.playstation.net/update/psp2/list/**/psp2-updatelist.xml" and point it to your local server you could[1] have more control over the updates/bandwith. Of course you need to have every <code>PSP2UPDATE.PUP</code> file you reference to, otherwise it errors out.

In this example the webserver is configured at http://192.168.0.254, region is set to <code>eu</code>[2].
