1 Launch the FTP client on your computer.

2 Enter “open”, followed by a space and the IP address of your ZyXEL Device.  

3 Press [ENTER] when prompted for a username.

4 Enter your password as requested (the default is “1234”).

5 Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary.

6 Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the ZyXEL Device, for example, “put 

firmware.bin ras” transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the ZyXEL 
Device and renames it “ras”. Similarly, “put config.rom rom-0” transfers the 
configuration file on your computer (config.rom) to the ZyXEL Device and renames it 
“rom-0”. Likewise “get rom-0 config.rom” transfers the configuration file on the ZyXEL 
Device to your computer and renames it “config.rom.” See earlier in this chapter for more 
information on filename conventions.

7 Enter “quit” to exit the ftp prompt.

The ZyXEL Device automatically restarts after a successful file upload

.

More commands (found in GUI-based FTP clients) are listed earlier in this chapter.

The ZyXEL Device also supports the uploading of firmware files using TFTP (Trivial File 
Transfer Protocol) over LAN. Although TFTP should work over WAN as well, it is not 
recommended.

To use TFTP, your computer must have both telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware 
and the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.
