Chapter 33 Firmware and Configuration File Maintenance

Refer to

Section 33.2.5 on page 309

to read about configurations that disallow TFTP and FTP

over WAN.

33.3 Restore Configuration

This section shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note that this
function erases the current configuration before restoring a previous back up configuration;
please do not attempt to restore unless you have a backup configuration file stored on disk.

FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to your Prestige
since FTP is faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically restart after
the file transfer is complete.

Note: Do not interrupt the file transfer process as this may PERMANENTLY

DAMAGE YOUR Prestige.

For details about backup using (T)FTP please refer to earlier sections on FTP and TFTP file
