Verifying Your Configuration File Upload Via SNMP
You can use SNMP management software to display the configuration file version currently on the device by using the following MIB.
Table 120 Displaying the File Version
ITEM | OBJECT ID | DESCRIPTION |
pwCfgVersion | 1.3.6.1.4.1.890.1.9.1.2 | This displays the current configuration file version. |

Troubleshooting Via SNMP
If you have any difficulties with the configuration file upload, you can try using the following MIB 10 to 20 seconds after using SNMP to have the AP download the configuration file.
Table 121 Displaying the File Version
ITEM | OBJECT ID | DESCRIPTION |
pwTftpOpStatus | 1.3.6.1.4.1.890.1.9.1.6 | This displays the current operating status of the TFTP |

Configuration File Format
The text based configuration file must use the following format.
Figure 201 Configuration File Format
!#ZYXEL PROWLAN !#VERSION 12
wcfg security 1 xxx wcfg security save wcfg ssid 1 xxx wcfg ssid save
The first line must be !#ZYXEL PROWLAN.
The second line must specify the file version. The AP compares the file version with the version of the last configuration file that it downloaded. If the version of the downloaded file is the same or smaller (older), the AP ignores the file. If the version of the downloaded file is larger (newer), the AP uses the file.
Configuration File Rules
You can only use the wlan and wcfg commands in the configuration file. The AP ignores other ZyNOS commands but continues to check the next command.
The AP ignores any improperly formatted commands and continues to check the next line.
