FAQ
ZyNOS FAQ
1. What is ZyNOS?
ZyNOS is ZyXEL's proprietary Network Operating System. It is the platform on all
P-202H Plus v2 routers that delivers network services and applications. It is
designed in a modular fashion so it is easy for developers to add new features.
New ZyNOS software upgrades can be easily downloaded from our FTP sites as
they become available.
2. How do I access the P-202H Plus v2 SMT menu?
The SMT interface is a menu driven interface, which can be accessed via a
RS232 console or a Telnet connection. To access the P-202H Plus v2 via SMT
console port, a computer equipped with communication software such as
HyperTerminal must be configured to the following parameters.
•
VT100 terminal emulation
•
9600bps baud rate
•
N81 data format (No Parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit)
The default console port baud rate is 9600bps. You can change it to 115200bps
in Menu 24.2.2 to speed up access of the SMT.
3. What data compression protocol does the P-202H Plus v2 support?
The P-202H Plus v2 supports STAC compression. Please note that STAC is not
enabled in the P-202H Plus v2 by default. You can enable it in Remote Node
setup (SMT menu 11.2, Edit PPP Option).
4. What is the default console port baud rate? Moreover, how do I change it?
The default console port baud rate is 9600bps. When configuring the SMT,
please make sure that terminal baud rate is also 9600bps. You can change the
console baud rate from 9600bps to 57600 to speed up SMT access, by using
SMT menu 24.2.2.
5. How do I upload the ZyNOS firmware code via console?
