Menu 24.7.2 - System Maintenance - Upload Router Configuration File
FTP and TFTP are the preferred methods for uploading router
firmware to your ZyWALL since FTP and TFTP are faster.
To upload router configuration file:
1. Enter "y" at the prompt below to go into debug mode.
2. Enter "atlc" after "Enter Debug Mode" message.
3. Wait for "Starting XMODEM upload" message before activating
Xmodem upload on your terminal.
4. After successful firmware upload, enter "atgo" to restart the
router.
Warning:
1. Proceeding with the upload will erase the current
configuration file.
2. The router's console port speed (Menu 24.2.2) may change
when it is restarted; please adjust your terminal's speed
accordingly. The password may change (menu 23), also.
3. When uploading the DEFAULT configuration file, the console
port speed will be reset to 9600 bps and the password to
"1234".

10.5 TFTP File Transfer

In addition to the direct console port connection, the ZyWALL supports the up/downloading of the
firmware and the configuration file using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over LAN. Although TFTP
should work over WAN as well, it is not recommended.
To use TFTP, your workstation must have both telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware and the
configuration file, follow the next procedure:
Step 1. Use telnet from your workstation to connect to the ZyWALL and log in. Because TFTP does
not have any security checks, the ZyWALL records the IP address of the telnet client and
accepts TFTP requests only from this address.
Step 2. Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 – System
Maintenance.
Step 3.
Enter command sys stdio 0 to disable the SMT timeout, so the TFTP transfer will not be
interrupted. Enter command sys stdio 5 to restore the five-minute SMT timeout (default)
when the file transfer is complete.
Step 4. Launch the TFTP client on your workstation and connect to the ZyWALL. Set the transfer mode
to binary before starting data transfer.
Step 5. Use the TFTP client (see the example below) to transfer files between the ZyWALL and the
workstation. The file name for the firmware is ras and for the configuration file, is rom-0
(rom-zero, not capital o).
