Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

10.4 Backup Configuration

Option 5 from Menu 24 - System Maintenance allows you to backup the current Prestige configuration to your workstation. Backup is highly recommended once your Prestige is functioning properly.

You must perform the backup and restore through the console port. Any serial communications program should work fine; however, you must use XMODEM protocol to perform the download/upload.

Please note that terms “download” and “upload” are relative to the workstation. Download means to transfer from another machine to the workstation, while upload means from your workstation to another machine.

10.5 Restore Configuration

Select option 6 from Menu 24 - System Maintenance to restore the configuration from your workstation to the Prestige. Again, you must use the console port and XMODEM protocol to restore the configuration.

Rest assured that the configuration is stored in the flash ROM in the Prestige, so even if power failure should occur, your configuration is safe.

10.6 Software Update

Software updates are only possible through the console port connection. You cannot use telnet to update the software version of your Prestige.

Note: Please note that this function will delete the old software before installing the new software. Do not attempt to utilize this menu unless you have the new software version.

Type ‘atur’ and wait until the Prestige responds with an OK to begin uploading the new software (upload procedure varies depending on the type of software used to access the Prestige). You must use the XMODEM protocol to perform the upload. After uploading is successful, type ‘atgo’ to start your Prestige.
