FTP Access for Firmware/Configuration Uploads
The router provides an FTP server and can accept FTP client commands from an external host. Using FTP, you can
•Upload a new revision of the router firmware
•Save the router’s current configuration to a file on the host computer and then upload the configuration to another 5600 series router.
NOTE: A configuration file saved from a Bridge 1.1.x router can not be loaded on a router running the Router/Bridge 2.0 firmware. However, a configuration file saved from a router running Router/Bridge 1.0 can be uploaded to a router running version 2.0 firmware.
