10-14 Netopia ISDN Router Reference Guide
Downloading configuration files
The Netopia ISDN Router can be configured by downloading a
configuration file. The downloaded file reconfigures all of the
Router’s parameters.
Configuration files may occasionally be available from Farallon, from
a site maintained by your organization’s network administrator, or
from your local site (see
“To upload a configuration file,” below).
Follow these steps to download a configuration file:
1. Make sure you have the configuration file on disk and know the
path to its location.
2. Select Send Config to Netopia and press Return. The following
dialog box appears:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| Do you want to send a saved configuration to your Netopia? |
| If so, when you hit Return/Enter on the CONTINUE button, you will|
| have 10 seconds to begin the transfer from your terminal program.|
| |
| CANCEL CONTINUE |
| |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+
3. Select CANCEL to exit without downloading the file, or select
CONTINUE to download the file.
If you choose CONTINUE , you will have ten seconds to use your
terminal emulation software to initiate an XMODEM transfer of
the configuration file. If you fail to initiate the transfer in that
time, the dialog box will disappear and the terminal emulation
software will inform you of the transfer’s failure. You can then
tr y again.
The system will reset at the end of a successful file transfer to
put the new configuration into effect.
