23.14 Firmware and Configuration File Maintenance

Use the instructions in the following sections to change the device's configuration file or
upgrade its firmware. After you configure your device, you can backup the configuration file
to a computer. That way if you later misconfigure the device, you can upload the backed up
configuration file to return to your previous settings. You can alternately upload the factory
default configuration file if you want to return the device to the original default settings. The
firmware determines the device's available features and functionality. You can download new
firmware releases from your nearest ZyXEL FTP site (or www.zyxel.com) to use to upgrade
your device's performance.
Only use firmware for your device's specific model. Refer to the label on the
bottom of your ZyWALL.

DESCRIPTION
Enter the IP subnet mask of the ZyWALL's LAN port.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows
individual clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup from a
server. Unless you are instructed by your ISP, leave the DHCP check box
selected. Clear it to stop the ZyWALL from acting as a DHCP server. When
configured as a server, the ZyWALL provides TCP/IP configuration for the
clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled and you must have another DHCP
server on your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured. When
set as a server, fill in the rest of the DHCP setup fields.
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.
Click Bridge to go to the Bridge screen where you can view and/or change the
bridge settings.
Select this radio button and configure the following fields, then click Apply to set
the ZyWALL to bridge mode.
Enter the IP address of your ZyWALL in dotted decimal notation.
Enter the IP subnet mask of the ZyWALL.
Enter the gateway IP address.
When the ZyWALL is in zero configuration mode, there is no need to select or
clear this radio button.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyWALL. After you click Apply,
please wait for one minute and use the IP address you configured in the LAN
Interface IP Address field to access the ZyWALL again.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
