Step 6
Specify the destination filename:
Destination file name?
ubr7200-k8p-mz
This is the name the new software image will have when it is loaded onto the router. The image can be
named anything, but common practice is to enter the UNIX image filename.
Step 7
Erase the Flash device before confirming:
a.
Enter
yes
to erase the existing software image resident in the router's Flash memory before copying
the new one.
b.
Enter
no
to keep the existing software image. Be sure that you have enough Flash memory to keep both.
Erase flash device before writing? [confirm] yes/no
The copying process requires several minutes; the time differs from network to network. During the
copying process, messages are displayed to indicate which files have been accessed.
The exclamation point "!" indicates that the copying process is taking place. Each exclamation point
indicates that ten packets have been transferred successfully. A checksum verification of the image
occurs after the image is written to Flash memory.
Step 8
Before reloading, verify the correct installation and commands.
a.
Verify that the image is properly installed and that the boot system commands point to the proper
file to load. Information about verifying the image and boot commands is available in
Appendix B,
“Resolving Common Image Installation Problems.”
b.
To reload the image, type:
Router#
reload
*Mar 1 00:30:49.972: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: no !-- lower case
Proceed with reload? [confirm] yes !-- lower case
Step 9
Use the
show version
command to verify that the router is running with the proper image.
