Prestige 1100 Internet Access Router The following table describes the diagnostic tests available in Menu 24.4 for your Prestige and the connections. Field Table 12-4 System Maintenance Menu Diagnostic Description Ping Host Reboot System Command Mode This diagnostic test pings the host, which determines the functionality of the TCP/IP protocol on both systems and the links in between. This option reboots the Prestige. This option allows you to enter the command mode. This mode allows you to diagnose and test your Prestige using a specified set of commands. 12.5 Filename conventions The configuration file (sometimes called the romfile or romfile-0) contains the settings in the menus such as password, DHCP Setup defaults, TCP/IP Setup defaults etc. The external (i.e., not on the Prestige) configuration filename is usually the router model name with a *.rom extension, e.g., P1100.rom. The ZyNOS firmware file (sometimes referred to as the "ras" file) is the file that contains the ZyXEL Network Operating System firmware and the external firmware file is usually called the router model name with a *.bin extension, e.g., P1100.bin. Rename the configuration filename to "rom-0" or "rom-spt" (see the next section) and the firmware filename to "ras" when transferring files to the Prestige. These are the internal (i.e., on the Prestige) filenames. Renaming the files is not necessary when you transfer files to the Prestige using the X-Modem protocol. The following table is a summary. Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename on the Prestige and the external filename refers to the filename not on the Prestige, i.e., on your workstation, local network or ftp site and so the name (but not the extension) will vary. The AT command is the command you enter after you press "Y" when prompted in the SMT menu to go into debug mode. 12-8 System Maintenance

This diagnostic test pings the host, which determines the functionality of the
TCP/IP protocol on both systems and the links in between.

12.5 Filename conventions
The configuration file (sometimes called the romfile or romfile-0) contains the settings in the menus such as
password, DHCP Setup defaults, TCP/IP Setup defaults etc. The external (i.e., not on the Prestige)
configuration filename is usually the router model name with a *.rom extension, e.g., P1100.rom. The
ZyNOS firmware file (sometimes referred to as the “ras” file) is the file that contains the ZyXEL Network
Operating System firmware and the external firmware file is usually called the router model name with a
*.bin extension, e.g., P1100.bin. Rename the configuration filename to “rom-0” or “rom-spt” (see the next
section) and the firmware filename to “ras” when transferring files to the Prestige. These are the internal
(i.e., on the Prestige) filenames. Renaming the files is not necessary when you transfer files to the Prestige
using the X-Modem protocol.
The following table is a summary. Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename on the
Prestige and the external filename refers to the filename not on the Prestige, i.e., on your workstation, local
network or ftp site and so the name (but not the extension) will vary. The AT command is the command you
enter after you press “Y” when prompted in the SMT menu to go into debug mode.
