Task 7: Save the Current Configuration

To save the current configuration, use the

copy running-configuration

command:

host1#copy running-configuration filename.cnf

Task 8: Reboot the System

To reboot the system using the newly installed software:

1

Access Global Configuration mode.

host1#configure

Configuring from terminal or file [terminal]?

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

host1(config)#

2

Run the

boot system command, specifying the .rel filename of the

software release. For example:

host1(config)#boot system x-y-z.rel

The following message appears when you execute this command:

WARNING: It is recommended that you copy the current

running- configuration to a file prior to reloading a

different release of software.

3

Press <CTRL-Z> to return to Privileged Exec mode.

4

Check that the ERX system is ready to boot with the new software
release.

host1#show boot

If the old software version is still listed, verify that you completed the
previous steps correctly.

5

Run the

reload command.

host1#reload

The following message appears when you execute this command:

WARNING: Execution of this command will cause the system to

reboot. Proceed with reload? [confirm]

The system reboots. The reboot may take longer than normal
because line modules initialize with the old version of the software,
acquire the new version from the SRP module, and reinitialize.
When you observe the LEDs on the line modules, the line modules
appear to boot twice.
