Backup Configuration; Backup Configuration Using Ftp; Table 53 Filename Conventions - ZyXEL Communications ZyXEL ZyAIR G-1000 User Manual

The following table is a summary. Please note that the internal filename refers to the filename
on the G-1000 and the external filename refers to the filename not on the G-1000, that is, on
your computer, local network or FTP site and so the name (but not the extension) will 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.

18.2 Backup Configuration

Option 5 from Menu 24 – System Maintenance allows you to backup the current G-1000
configuration to your computer. Backup is highly recommended once your G-1000 is
functioning properly. FTP is the preferred method, although TFTP can also be used.
Please note that the terms "download" and "upload" are relative to the computer. Download
means to transfer from the G-1000 to the computer, while upload means from your computer
to the G-1000.
