DESCRIPTION

#

This column displays the number for each configuration file entry. The total number of

 

configuration files that you can save depends on the sizes of the configuration files and

 

the available flash storage space.

 

 

File Name

This column displays the label that identifies a configuration file.

 

You cannot delete the following configuration files or change their file names.

 

The system-default.conffile contains the ZyWALL’s default settings. Select this file

 

and click Apply to reset all of the ZyWALL settings to the factory defaults. This

 

configuration file is included when you upload a firmware package.

 

The startup-config.conffile is the configuration file that the ZyWALL is currently

 

using. If you make and save changes during your management session, the changes

 

are applied to this configuration file. The ZyWALL applies configuration changes made

 

in the web configurator to the configuration file when you click Apply or OK. It applies

 

configuration changes made via commands when you use the write command.

 

The lastgood.conf is the most recently used (valid) configuration file that was saved

 

when the device last restarted. If you upload and apply a configuration file with an error,

 

you can apply lastgood.conf to return to a valid configuration.

 

 

Size

This column displays the size (in KB) of a configuration file.

 

 

Last Modified

This column displays the date and time that the individual configuration files were last

 

changed or saved.

44.3 The Firmware Package Screen

Click Maintenance > File Manager > Firmware Package to open the Firmware Package screen. Use the Firmware Package screen to check your current firmware version and upload firmware to the ZyWALL.

"The web configurator is the recommended method for uploading firmware. You only need to use the command line interface if you need to recover the firmware. See the CLI Reference Guide for how to determine if you need to recover the firmware and how to recover it.

Find the firmware package at www.zyxel.com in a file that (usually) uses the system model name with a .bin extension, for example, “zywall.bin”.
