DESCRIPTION

Firmware Upgrade

Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and

 

use the web configurator, CLI or an FTP/TFTP tool to put it on the

 

Switch.

 

 

 

 

Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Configuration Backup &

Make a copy of the Switch’s configuration and put it back on the Switch

 

Restoration

 

later if you decide you want to revert back to an earlier configuration.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cluster Management

 

Cluster management (also known as iStacking) allows you to manage

 

 

 

 

switches through one switch, called the cluster manager. The switches

 

 

 

 

must be directly connected and be in the same VLAN group so as to be

 

 

 

 

able to communicate with one another.
