Configuration & Firmware Maintenance
This chapter describes how to backup and restore your configuration file as well as upload new firmware and a new configuration file.
15.1Filenames
The configuration file contains the factory default settings in the menus such as password, DHCP Setup, TCP/IP Setup etc. It arrives from ZyXEL with named “prestige.rom” or something similar. Once you have customized the Prestige's setting, they can be saved back to your computer under a filename of your choosing. Choose something meaningful, e.g., “prestige.cfg”. Rename it as
The ZyNOS firmware file (sometimes referred to as the ras file) is the file that contains the ZyXEL Network Operating System firmware and is usually named the router model name with a “bin” extension, e.g., “prestige.bin”. Rename it as
ftp> put prestige.bin ras
This is a sample ftp session showing the transfer of the "prestige.bin" file on your computer to the Prestige.
ftp> get
This is a sample ftp session saving the current configuration to the “prestige.cfg” file on your computer.
If your (t)ftp client does not allow a destination filename different from the source, then you will need to rename them. Be sure you keep unaltered copies of both files for later use.
Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename on the Prestige and the external filename refers to the filename not on the Prestige, i.e., on your workstation, local network or ftp site and so the name (but not the extension) will vary.
Always refer to Menu 24.2.1 to verify your current firmware version.
