Table 34-3 General Commands for GUI-based TFTP Clients

COMMAND DESCRIPTION

Host

Enter the IP address of the Prestige. 192.168.1.1 is the Prestige’s default IP address
when shipped.

Send/Fetch

Use “Send” to upload the file to the Prestige and “Fetch” to back up the file on your
computer.

Local File

Enter the path and name of the firmware file (*.bin extension) or configuration file (*.rom
extension) on your computer.

Remote File

This is the filename on the Prestige. The filename for the firmware is “ras” and for the
configuration file, is “rom-0”.

Binary

Transfer the file in binary mode.

Abort

Stop transfer of the file.

Refer to section 34.2.5 to read about configurations that disallow TFTP and FTP over WAN.

34.3 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 Prestige since FTP is
faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically restart after the file transfer is
complete.

WARNING!

DO NOT INTERRUPT THE FILE TRANSFER PROCESS AS THIS MAY

PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR PRESTIGE.
