you have a backup configuration stored on disk. To restore configuration using FTP or TFTP is the same as
uploading the configuration file, please refer to the following sections on FTP and TFTP file transfer for
more details. The Prestige restarts automatically after the file transfer is complete.

Menu 24.6 – Restore Configuration
To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow the procedure
below:
1. Launch the FTP client on your workstation.
2. Type "open" and the IP address of your router. Then type "root" and
SMT password as requested.
3. Type “put backupfilename rom-0” where backupfilename is the name of
your backup configuration file on your workstation and rom-spt is the
Remote file name on the router. This restores the configuration to your
router.
4. The system reboots automatically after a successful file transfer.
