the system.
Figure 11-16  Successful Restoration
Keep in mind that the configuration is stored in the flash ROM in the Prestige, so even if power failure
should occur, your configuration is safe.
11.6 Firmware Upload
Menu 24.7 -- System Maintenance - Upload Firmware
 allows you to upgrade the firmware and the
configuration file via the console port. The firmware and configuration file may also be uploaded via FTP.
There are 2 components in the system: the router firmware and the configuration file, as shown in the next
figure. Restoring the configuration as in menu 24.6 copies your (customized) backup configuration from
your computer to the Prestige. Note you must be able to access the SMT to do this. Uploading the
configuration file via menu 24.7.2 on the other hand rewrites all configuration data, as well as system-
related data, the error log and the trace log. If you forget your password for instance (see section 2.7.1) you
will need to use menu 24.7.2 as you can use this method in debug mode. However, your customized
settings will be reset to the default values (including your password being reset to 1234, the Prestige default
password).
