ZyWALL 2 and ZyWALL 2WE

22.3 Restore Configuration

This section shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note that this function erases the
current configuration before restoring a previous back up configuration; please do not attempt to restore
unless you have a backup configuration file stored on disk.
FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to your ZyWALL since FTP
is faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically restart after the file transfer is
complete.
WARNING!
Do not interrupt the file transfer process as this may PERMANENTLY DAMAGE
YOUR ZyWALL. When the Restore Configuration process is complete, the
ZyWALL will automatically restart.
22.3.1 Restore Using FTP
For details about backup using (T)FTP please refer to earlier sections on FTP and TFTP file upload in this
chapter.
