Configuration files define the ZyWALL's settings. Shell scripts are files of commands that you
can store on the ZyWALL and run when you need them. You can apply a configuration file or
run a shell script without the ZyWALL restarting. You can store multiple configuration files
and shell script files on the ZyWALL. You can edit configuration files or shell scripts in a text
editor and upload them to the ZyWALL. Configuration files use a .conf extension and shell
