6.7.3 File Manager

Use these screens to upload, download, delete, or run scripts of CLI commands. You can manage

•Configuration files. Use configuration files to back up and restore the complete configuration of the ZyWALL. You can store multiple configuration files in the ZyWALL and switch between them without restarting.

•Shell scripts. Use shell scripts to run a series of CLI commands. These are useful for large, repetitive configuration changes (for example, creating a lot of VPN tunnels) and for troubleshooting.

You can edit configuration files and shell scripts in any text editor.
