G-1000 User’s Guide

The following table is a summary. Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename on the G-1000 and the external filename refers to the filename not on the G-1000, that is, on your computer, local network or FTP site and so the name (but not the extension) will vary. After uploading new firmware see the ZyNOS F/W Version field in Menu 24.2.1 – System Maintenance – Information to confirm that you have uploaded the correct firmware version.

18.2 Backup Configuration

Option 5 from Menu 24 – System Maintenance allows you to backup the current G-1000 configuration to your computer. Backup is highly recommended once your G-1000 is functioning properly. FTP is the preferred method, although TFTP can also be used.

Please note that the terms “download” and “upload” are relative to the computer. Download means to transfer from the G-1000 to the computer, while upload means from your computer to the G-1000.
