38.3 The Firmware Package Screen

Click Maintenance > File Manager > Firmware Package to open the Firmware Package
screen. Use the Firmware Package screen to check your current firmware version and upload
firmware to the ZyWALL/USG. You can upload firmware to be the Running firmware or Standby
firmware.
Note: The Web Configurator is the recommended method for uploading firmware. You
only need to use the command line interface if you need to recover the firmware.
See the CLI Reference Guide for how to determine if you need to recover the
firmware and how to recover it.
Find the firmware package at www.zyxel.com in a file that (usually) uses the system model name
with a .bin extension, for example, "zywall.bin".
The ZyWALL/USG's firmware package cannot go through the ZyWALL/USG when you enable the
anti-virus Destroy compressed files that could not be decompressed option. The ZyWALL/
USG classifies the firmware package as not being able to be decompressed and deletes it. You can
upload the firmware package to the ZyWALL/USG with the option enabled, so you only need to clear

DESCRIPTION
This column displays the label that identifies a configuration file.
You cannot delete the following configuration files or change their file names.
The system-default.conf file contains the ZyWALL/USG's default settings. Select this file
and click Apply to reset all of the ZyWALL/USG settings to the factory defaults. This
configuration file is included when you upload a firmware package.
The startup-config.conf file is the configuration file that the ZyWALL/USG is currently
using. If you make and save changes during your management session, the changes are
applied to this configuration file. The ZyWALL/USG applies configuration changes made in
the Web Configurator to the configuration file when you click Apply or OK. It applies
configuration changes made via commands when you use the write command.
The lastgood.conf is the most recently used (valid) configuration file that was saved
when the device last restarted. If you upload and apply a configuration file with an error,
you can apply lastgood.conf to return to a valid configuration.
This column displays the size (in KB) of a configuration file.
This column displays the date and time that the individual configuration files were last
changed or saved.
The bottom part of the screen allows you to upload a new or previously saved
configuration file from your computer to your ZyWALL/USG
You cannot upload a configuration file named system-default.conf or lastgood.conf.
If you upload startup-config.conf, it will replace the current configuration and
immediately apply the new settings.
Type in the location of the file you want to upload in this field or click Browse ... to find it.
Click Browse... to find the .conf file you want to upload. The configuration file must use a
".conf" filename extension. You will receive an error message if you try to upload a fie of a
different format. Remember that you must decompress compressed (.zip) files before you
can upload them.
Click Upload to begin the upload process. This process may take up to two minutes.
