Chapter 24 Firmware and Configuration File Maintenance
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, 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
ZyNOS F/W Version
field in
Menu 24.2.1 – System
Maintenance – Information
to confirm that you have uploaded the correct firmware version.
The AT command is the command you enter after you press “y” when prompted in the SMT
menu to go into debug mode.

Backup Configuration
Option 5 from
Menu 24 – System Maintenance
allows you to backup the current Prestige
configuration to your computer. Backup is highly recommended once your Prestige is
functioning properly. FTP is the preferred methods for backing up your current configuration
to your computer since they are faster. Any serial communications program should work fine;
however, you must use Xmodem protocol to perform the download/upload and you don’t have
to rename the files.
Please note that terms “download” and “upload” are relative to the computer. Download
means to transfer from the Prestige to the computer, while upload means from your computer
to the Prestige.
