Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub
10-14 System Maintenance
10.4 Backup Configuration
Option 5 from Menu 24 - System Maintenance allows you to backup the current Prestige
configuration to your workstation. Backup is highly recommended once your Prestige is
functioning properly.
You must perform the backup and restore through the console port. Any serial communications
program should work fine; however, you must use XMODEM protocol to perform the
download/upload.
Please note that terms “download” and “upload” are relative to the workstation. Download means
to transfer from another machine to the workstation, while upload means from your workstation
to another machine.
10.5 Restore Configuration
Select option 6 from Menu 24 - System Maintenance to restore the configuration from your
workstation to the Prestige. Again, you must use the console port and XMODEM protocol to
restore the configuration.
Rest assured that the configuration is stored in the flash ROM in the Prestige, so even if power
failure should occur, your configuration is safe.
10.6 Software Update
Software updates are only possible through the console port connection. You cannot use telnet
to update the software version of your Prestige.
Note: Please note that this function will delete the old software before installing the new
software. Do not attempt to utilize this menu unless you have the new software version.
Type ‘atur’ and wait until the Prestige responds with an OK to begin uploading the new software
(upload procedure varies depending on the type of software used to access the Prestige). You
must use the XMODEM protocol to perform the upload. After uploading is successful, type ‘atgo’
to start your Prestige.
