Chapter 29 Firmware and Configuration File Maintenance 29.3.4 GUI-based FTP Clients The following table describes some of the commands that you may see in GUI-based FTP clients. Table 86 General Commands for GUI-based FTP Clients COMMAND DESCRIPTION Host Address Enter the address of the host server. Login Type Anonymous. This is when a user I.D. and password is automatically supplied to the server for anonymous access. Anonymous logins will work only if your ISP or service administrator has enabled this option. Normal. The server requires a unique User ID and Password to login. Transfer Type Transfer files in either ASCII (plain text format) or in binary mode. Configuration and firmware files should be transferred in binary mode Initial Remote Directory Specify the default remote directory (path). Initial Local Directory Specify the default local directory (path). 29.3.5 File Maintenance Over WAN TFTP, FTP and Telnet over the WAN will not work when: 1 You have disabled Telnet service in menu 24.11. 2 You have applied a filter in menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.5 (WAN) to block Telnet service. 3 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 ZyXEL Device will disconnect the Telnet session immediately. 4 You have an SMT console session running. 29.3.6 Backup Configuration Using TFTP The ZyXEL Device supports the up/downloading of the firmware and the configuration file using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over LAN. 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 backup the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next. 1 Use telnet from your computer to connect to the ZyXEL Device and log in. Because TFTP does not have any security checks, the ZyXEL Device records the IP address of the telnet client and accepts TFTP requests only from this address. 2 Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 - System Maintenance. 3 Enter 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. 4 Launch the TFTP client on your computer and connect to the ZyXEL Device. Set the transfer mode to binary before starting data transfer. 244 P-791R v2 User's Guide

29.3.4

GUI-based FTP Clients

The following table describes some of the commands that you may see in GUI-based FTP

clients.

29.3.5

File Maintenance Over WAN

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

You have disabled Telnet service in menu 24.11.

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

service.

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 ZyXEL Device will disconnect the Telnet session

immediately.

You have an SMT console session running.

29.3.6

Backup Configuration Using TFTP

The ZyXEL Device supports the up/downloading of the firmware and the configuration file

using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over LAN. 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 backup the

configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.

Use telnet from your computer to connect to the ZyXEL Device and log in. Because

TFTP does not have any security checks, the ZyXEL Device 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 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 ZyXEL Device. Set the

transfer mode to binary before starting data transfer.
