34.4 Restore Configuration
This section shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note that this
function erases the current configuration before restoring a previous back up configuration;
please do not attempt to restore unless you have a backup configuration file stored on disk.
FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to your ZyXEL
Device since FTP is faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically
restart after the file transfer is complete.
Note: WARNING!
Do not interrupt the file transfer process as this may PERMANENTLY
DAMAGE YOUR ZyXEL Device. When the Restore Configuration process is
complete, the ZyXEL Device will automatically restart.
34.4.1 Restore Using FTP
For details about backup using (T)FTP please refer to earlier sections on FTP and TFTP file

To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow the procedure
below:
1. Launch the FTP client on your computer.
2. Type "open" and the IP address of your system. Then type "root" and
SMT password as requested.
