Although TFTP should work over WAN as well, it is not recommended. To use TFTP, your computer must have both telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next: Step 1. Step 2. Step 3. Step 4. Step 5. Use telnet from your computer to connect to the ZyAIR and log in. Because TFTP does not have any security checks, the ZyAIR records the IP address of the telnet client and accepts TFTP requests only from this address. Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 - System Maintenance. Enter the command "sys stdio 0" to disable the SMT timeout, so the TFTP transfer will not be interrupted. Enter command "sys stdio 5" to restore the five-minute SMT timeout (default) when the file transfer is complete. Launch the TFTP client on your computer and connect to the ZyAIR. Set the transfer mode to binary before starting data transfer. Use the TFTP client (see the example below) to transfer files between the ZyAIR and the computer. The file name for the firmware is "ras" and the configuration file is "rom-0" (romzero, not capital o). Note that the telnet connection must be active and the SMT in CI mode before and during the TFTP transfer. For details on TFTP commands (see following example), please consult the documentation of your TFTP client program. For UNIX, use "get" to transfer from the ZyAIR to the computer, "put" the other way around, and "binary" to set binary transfer mode. Firmware and Configuraiton File Maintenance 17-9
