4 Enter your password as requested (the default is “1234”).
5 Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary.
6 Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the ZyXEL Device, for example, “put
firmware.bin ras” transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the ZyXEL
Device and renames it “ras”. Similarly, “put config.rom rom-0” transfers the
configuration file on your computer (config.rom) to the ZyXEL Device and renames it
“rom-0”. Likewise “get rom-0 config.rom” transfers the configuration file on the ZyXEL
Device to your computer and renames it “config.rom.” See earlier in this chapter for more
information on filename conventions.
7 Enter “quit” to exit the ftp prompt.

More commands (found in GUI-based FTP clients) are listed earlier in this chapter.
Refer to
to read about configurations that disallow TFTP and FTP
over WAN.
34.5.5 TFTP File Upload
The ZyXEL Device also supports the uploading of firmware files using TFTP (Trivial File
Transfer Protocol) over LAN. Although TFTP should work over WAN as well, it is not
recommended.
To use TFTP, your computer must have both telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware
and the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.
1 Use telnet from your computer to connect to the ZyXEL Device and log in. Because
TFTP does not have any security checks, the ZyXEL Device records the IP address of the
telnet client and accepts TFTP requests only from this address.
2 Put the SMT in command interpreter (CI) mode by entering 8 in Menu 24 – System
Maintenance.
