This section shows some examples of uploading to or downloading files from the Prestige

using FTP commands. First, understand the filename conventions.

8.2.1

Filename Conventions

The configuration file (also known as the romfile or ROM) contains the factory default

settings in the screens such as password, Prestige setup, IP Setup, etc.. Once you have

customized the Prestige's settings, they can be saved back to your computer under a filename

of your choosing.

ZyNOS (ZyXEL Network Operating System sometimes referred to as the “ras” file) is the

system firmware and has a “bin” filename extension.

8.2.1.1

Example FTP Commands

ftp> put firmware.bin ras

This is a sample FTP session showing the transfer of the computer file "firmware.bin" to the

Prestige.

ftp> get config config.cfg

This is a sample FTP session saving the current configuration to a file called “config.cfg” on

your computer.

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 Prestige

only recognizes “config” and “ras”. Be

sure you keep unaltered copies of both files for later use.

Note:

Be sure to upload the correct model firmware as uploading the wrong model

firmware may damage your device.
