■Select CANCEL to exit without downloading the file, or select CONTINUE to download the file. The system will reset at the end of the file transfer to put the new configuration into effect.

■If you choose to download the configuration file, the TFTP Transfer State item will change from Idle to Reading Config. The TFTP Current Transfer Bytes item will reflect the number of bytes transferred.

Uploading configuration files

Using TFTP, you can send a file containing a snapshot of the router’s current configuration to a TFTP server. The file can then be downloaded by a different Netopia R7200 unit to configure its parameters (see “Downloading configuration files” on page 15-8). This is useful for configuring a number of routers with identical parameters or just for creating configuration backup files.

Uploading a file can also be useful for troubleshooting purposes. The uploaded configuration file can be tested on a different Netopia R7200 unit by Netopia or your network administrator.

To upload a configuration file, follow these steps:

1.Select TFTP Server Name and enter the server name or IP address of the TFTP server you will use. The server name or IP address is available from the site where the server is located.

2.Select Config File Name and enter a name for the file you will upload. The file will appear with the name you choose on the TFTP server. You may need to enter a file path along with the file name (for example, Mypc/Netopia/myfile).

3.Select SEND CONFIG TO SERVER and press Return. Netopia will begin to transfer the file.

4.The TFTP Transfer State item will change from Idle to Writing Config. The TFTP Current Transfer Bytes item will reflect the number of bytes transferred.

Transferring configuration and firmware files with XMODEM

You can transfer configuration and firmware files with XMODEM through the Netopia R7200’s console port. Be sure your terminal emulation program supports XMODEM file transfers.

To go to the X-Modem File Transfer screen, select it in the Utilities & Diagnostics menu.

Note: The X-Modem File Transfer screen is only available if you are connected via the Console port.
