How To Use Zput To Store the Configuration

or NCL Command Output to a PC Host File

Use NCL’s Zput command to download the router configuration or NCL

command output to a file on a PC connected to the router as a console.

Note This procedure describes the use of Zput with PROCOMM PLUS. The

procedure is different when used with other terminal emulators.

Preparation:

1. Start PROCOMM PLUS .

2. Ensure that the PROCOMM PLUS “Auto downloading” feature for

the Zmodem protocol is set to “on”.

3. Press [Alt]-[S] to display the “PROCOMM PLUS SETUP UTILITY”

screen.

4. Select “PROTOCOL OPTIONS”.

5. Select “ZMODEM PROTOCOL OPTIONS”. In the resulting

“PROCOMM PLUS SETUP UTILITY”, verify that item C, “Auto

downloading”, is set to “on”. (If it is set to “off”, follow the

instructions in the screen to change the setting.)

6. Press [Esc] three times to return to the router’s Main menu

(see figure 1-1).

7. Select the “Network Control Language Interpreter” in the router’s

Main menu.

The procedure to download the configuration or NCL command display
