22.1 Overview
This chapter explains how to upload new firmware, manage configuration files and restart your
Device.
Use the instructions in this chapter 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 Device.

•Use the Firmware Upgrade screen (Section 22.2 on page 217) to upload firmware to your

•Use the Restart screen (Section 22.4 on page 221) to restart your Device.
22.2 The Firmware Screen
Click Maintenance > Tools to open the Firmware screen. Follow the instructions in this screen to
upload firmware to your Device. The upload process uses HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and
may take up to two minutes. After a successful upload, the system will reboot.
