ZyNOS FAQ
1. What is ZyNOS?
ZyNOS is ZyXEL's proprietary Network Operating System. It is the platform on
all Prestige 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-660R-Tx v2 Command Line Interface (CLI)?
You can access the P-660R-Tx v2 Command Line Interface via telnet.
3. How do I update the firmware and configuration file?
You can upload the firmware and configuration file to P-660R-Tx v2 from Web
Configurator, or using FTP/TFTP client software. You CAN NOT upload the
firmware and configuration file via Telnet because the Telnet connection will be
dropped during uploading the firmware. Please do not power off the router
right after the FTP or TFTP uploading is finished, the router will upload the
firmware to its flash at this moment.

program via LAN?
The Prestige allows you to transfer the firmware to Prestige by using TFTP
program via LAN. The procedure for uploading ZyNOS via TFTP is as follows.
