The configuration data, system-related data, the error log and the trace log are all stored in the 
configuration file. Please be aware that uploading the configuration file replaces everything 
contained within.

To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow the procedure 
below:
1. Launch the FTP client on your workstation.
2. Type "open" and the IP address of your router. Then type "root" and
   SMT password as requested.
3. Type “put backupfilename rom-0” where backupfilename is the name of
   your backup configuration file on your workstation and rom-spt is the
   Remote file name on the router. This restores the configuration to your     
   router.
4. The system reboots automatically after a successful file transfer. 
For details on FTP commands, please consult the documentation of your FTP
client program. For details on restoring using TFTP (note that you must
remain in the menu to back up using TFTP), please see your router manual.
