This is a sample FTP session saving the current configuration to the computer file

config.cfg

”.

If your (T)FTP client does not allow you to have a destination filename different than the
source, you will need to rename them as the ZyXEL Device only recognizes “rom-0” and
“ras”. Be sure you keep unaltered copies of both files for later use.

The following table is a summary. Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename
on the ZyXEL Device and the external filename refers to the filename not on the ZyXEL
Device, that is, on your computer, local network or FTP site and so the name (but not the
extension) may vary. After uploading new firmware, see the Status screen to confirm that you
have uploaded the correct firmware version.

25.3 File Maintenance Over WAN

TFTP, FTP and Telnet over the WAN will not work when:

1 The firewall is active (turn the firewall off or create a firewall rule to allow access from

the WAN).

2 You have disabled Telnet service in menu 24.11.

3 You have applied a filter in menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.5 (WAN) to block Telnet

service.

4 The IP you entered in the Secured Client IP field in menu 24.11 does not match the

client IP. If it does not match, the device will disconnect the Telnet session immediately.

25.4 Firmware Upgrade Screen

Click Maintenance > Tools to open the Firmware screen. Follow the instructions in this
screen to upload firmware to your ZyXEL Device. The upload process uses HTTP (Hypertext
Transfer Protocol) and may take up to two minutes. After a successful upload, the system will
reboot. See

Section 25.9 on page 311

for upgrading firmware using FTP/TFTP commands.
