UpdateXpress pack for VMware

I have recently built an ESXi 4 sever on a x3650. I saw on the support site that there’s an UpdateXpress package VMware. However I don’t know how this is run. From what I’ve read, you can’t mount a CD/USB or install anything within the ESXi shell.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks
