How To Use Zget To Load the Configuration to

 

a Router

 

Use NCL’s Zget command to upload the router configuration previously

 

stored as a file on the PC connected to the router as a console.

 

 

N o t e

Zget overwrites the router’s current configuration with the uploaded

 

configuration.

 

This procedure describes the use of Zput with PROCOMM PLUS. The

 

procedure is different when used with other terminal emulators.

 

Preparation

 

 

You must have either acquired the configuration from another source or

 

used Zput earlier to download the configuration to the PC host (see page

 

7-33). Run the PROCOMM PLUS terminal emulation program. Start a

 

router console session with the manager password.

 

To upload the configuration to the router:

 

1. Enter the Zget command:

 

zget [Enter]

 

2. Press [Pg Up] to display the “Upload Protocols” window.

 

3. Type z to select the “ZMODEM“ option and to display the “Send

 

ZMODEM“ window.

 

4. Enter the name of the file containing the configuration you want to

 

upload. End with [Enter] to begin uploading.
