3.2.1  Boot Menu 4: File Control 

Routers with more than 8 Mb of Flash provide a dual-image function. The system defines three 
default application files for booting the router (see below). When these files are loaded to Flash, 
the file specified by this option is used to boot the router. If you want to change the order or the 
boot file, you can select this option from the Boot ROM menu and make modifications. 

The default names, types, and selected sequence of main, backup, and secure application files 
are described as follows: 

 

Main application file: default name is main.bin, file type M. This is the default file the system 
uses to boot. 

 

Backup application file: default name is backup.bin, file type B. This file will be used to boot 
system when the main file fails.
