30.3 FTP Command Line

This section shows some examples of uploading files to the X6004 using FTP commands.
First, understand the filename conventions.

30.3.1 Filename Conventions

The following types of files can be uploaded to the X6004:
• Base firmware - contains basic operating instructions for the X6004. This file has a ".bin"
extension, for example "100AVA1b1.bin".
• Main firmware - contains the main software features of the X6004. This file has a ".rom"
extension, for example "100AVA1b1.rom".
• Factory Default Settings - contains the default configuration of the X6004. This file has a
".romd" extension, for example "100AVA1b1.romd".
• Firmware and Configuration - combines all of the files listed above into a single
uploadable file. This file has a ".binromromd" extension, for example
"100AVA1b1.binromromd".
Regardless of which file you want to upload to the X6004, you must first rename it to the
internal firmware file name on the X6004: ZLD-current.
30.3.1.1 Example FTP Commands
Do the following to upload the firmware and configuration file to the X6004:
1 Rename the file you want to upload to ZLD-current and place it in the directory from
