ZyWALL 2 and ZyWALL 2WE

4.5Resetting the ZyWALL

If you forget your password or cannot access the SMT menu, you will need to reload the factory-default configuration file or use the RESET button the back of the ZyWALL. Uploading this configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and flow control set to none. The password will be reset to “1234”, also.

4.5.1Uploading a Configuration File Via Console Port

Step 1. Download the default configuration file from the ZyXEL FTP site, unzip it and save it in a folder.

Step 2. Turn off the ZyWALL, begin a terminal emulation software session and turn on the ZyWALL again. When you see the message "Press Any key to enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds", press any key to enter debug mode.

Step 3. Enter "y" at the prompt below to go into debug mode. Step 4. Enter "atlc" after "Enter Debug Mode" message.

Step 5. Wait for "Starting XMODEM upload" message before activating Xmodem upload on your terminal. This is an example Xmodem configuration upload using HyperTerminal.

Step 6. Click Transfer, then Send File to display the following screen.

Type the configuration file’s location, or click Browse to search for it.

Choose the Xmodem protocol.

Then click Send.
