50.2 Filename Conventions
The configuration file (called config-0) contains the factory default settings in the menus such

filename extension.
The OS (Operating System) firmware (sometimes referred to as the “ras” file) has a “bin”
filename extension. With many FTP and clients, the filenames are similar to those shown next.
