Configuration File Flow at Restart
If there is not a startup-config.conf when you restart the ZyWALL (whether through a
management interface or by physically turning the power off and back on), the ZyWALL uses the
system-default.conf configuration file with the ZyWALL’s default settings.
•If there is a startup-config.conf, the ZyWALL checks it for errors and applies it. If there are no
errors, the ZyWALL uses it and copies it to the lastgood.conf configuration file as a back up file.
If there is an error, the ZyWALL generates a log and copies the startup-config.conf
configuration file to the startup-config-bad.conf configuration file and tries the existing
lastgood.conf configuration file. If there isn’t a lastgood.conf configuration file or it also has
an error, the ZyWALL applies the system-default.conf configuration file.
You can change the way the startup-config.conf file is applied. Include the setenv-startup
stop-on-error off command. The ZyWALL ignores any errors in the startup-config.conf file
and applies all of the valid commands. The ZyWALL still generates a log for any errors.
