Menu 24.6 –- System Maintenance – Restore Configuration allows you to restore the 
configuration via FTP or TFTP to your ZyXEL Device. The preferred method is FTP. Note

configuration; please do not attempt to restore unless you have a backup configuration stored 
on disk. To restore configuration using FTP or TFTP is the same as uploading the
