1 The firewall is active (turn the firewall off or create a firewall rule to allow access
from the WAN).
2 You have disabled the FTP service in the Remote Management screen.
3 The IP you entered in the Secured Client IP field does not match the client IP. If it
does not match, the device will disallow the FTP session immediately.
25.1.3 Before You Begin
Ensure you have either created a firewall rule to allow access from the WAN or
turned the firewall off, otherwise the FTP will not function.
Make sure the FTP service has not been disabled in the Remote Management
screen.
25.1.4 Tool Examples
Using FTP or TFTP to Restore Configuration
This example shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note
that this function erases the current configuration before restoring a previous back
up configuration; please do not attempt to restore unless you have a backup
configuration file stored on disk.
FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to
your device since FTP is faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to
automatically restart after the file transfer is complete.
Do not interrupt the file transfer process as this may
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE your device. When the Restore
Configuration process is complete, the device automatically
restarts.
