The heart of a feature pack is the CD-ROM that contains software images and the RSL, which is a
Windows 95 application that loads an image onto a router or access server. Each feature pack
CD-ROM contains at least one Cisco IOS feature set. The CD booklet Getting Started with the
Router Software Loader explains how to use the RSL to install the router image. If you cannot use
the RSL to load images, you can follow the instructions in the “Alternatives to RSL” section on
page 18.
Before running the RSL, read the “Installing Software Images Using RSL” section on page 17. If
you are loading software on a preconfigured router, you should save the router configuration file on
your PC before beginning the image download process, as described in Getting Started with the
Router Software Loader.
