•
boot-via-network
ftp_record
- Uses FTP to boot the CSS from software
located on a network-mounted file system on a remote system. Instead of the
CSS disk, the network file system contains the CSS software. The CSS boots
from this file system and loads the configuration in to memory.
Note
A network boot requires that the CSS contains an operational disk.
The
ftp_record
variable is the name of the FTP record file that contains the FTP
server IP address, username, and password. Enter an unquoted text string with no
spaces. Refer to
Chapter 1, Managing the CSS Software
, for details on creating
an FTP record.
For example, to specify the secondary boot type as
boot-via-disk
, enter:
(config-boot)#
secondary boot-type boot-via-disk
To remove the secondary boot type, enter:
(config-boot)#
no secondary boot-type
Secondary Boot Configuration Considerations
When you select
secondary boot-type boot-via-ftp
or
secondary boot-type
boot-via-network
, make sure you properly connect the Ethernet Management
port on the CSS to the network. Note the locations of the Ethernet Management
port on the CSS as listed below.
•
CSS 11503 and CSS 11506 - SCM 10 Mbps-Ethernet Management port
•
CSS 11501 - Front Panel 10 Mbps-Ethernet Management port
When you select
secondary boot-type boot-via-network
, make sure you:
•
Locate the remote system on the network where you will copy the CSS
software.
–
Make sure the CSS can access the system via FTP.
–
Copy the CSS software Zip file from www.cisco.com onto the designated
network server.
–
Create a directory and unzip the file in to the directory. This directory
will contain all of the boot files and directories.
