Downloading configuration files
The Netopia Router can be configured by downloading a
configuration file. The downloaded file reconfigures all of the
Router’s parameters.
Configuration files are available from a site maintained by your
organization’s network administrator or from your local site (see
“Uploading configuration files,” below).
The procedure below applies whether you are using the console or
the PC Card port.
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:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

| 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.
