Chapter 45 File Manager

The ZyWALL’s firmware package cannot go through the ZyWALL when you enable the anti- virus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option. The ZyWALL classifies the firmware package as not being able to be decompressed and deletes it. You can upload the firmware package to the ZyWALL with the option enabled, so you only need to clear the Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option while you download the firmware package. See Section 28.3.1 on page 408 for more on the anti-virus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option.

The firmware update can take up to five minutes. Do not turn off or reset the ZyWALL while the firmware update is in progress!

"The ZyWALL automatically reboots after a successful upload.
