Log Maintenance
This chapter shows you how to upgrade the firmware and configuration file and back up
configuration files and accounting logs.
12.1 Filename Conventions
The configuration file contains the factory default settings in the menus such as password, DHCP Setup,
TCP/IP Setup, etc. Once you have customized the settings of the ZyAIR, they can be saved back to your
computer under a filename of your choosing.
It is recommended to use the “.bin” file extension for the firmware file and “.rom” for the configuration file
for management purposes.

download the latest firmware at the specified time.
