Cisco 10008 Router Performance Routing Engine 3 Installation

OL-8544-01

Upgrading Software

Step 7

Power up the router. The router boots in read-only memory (ROM) monitor mode.

Step 8

From the console in ROM monitor mode, enter the appropriate boot command.

Booting from a TFTP Server

If you saved the PRE2 image on a TFTP server that is reachable from the router (for example, if the
router and server are on the same LAN or there is a default proxy server), boot the router from the TFTP
server.

In the following example, the router boots the PRE3 image from a network server with the IP address
172.16.15.112:

> boot tftp://172.16.15.112/c10k3-p11-mz

The configuration dialog appears.

You can now proceed to step 9.

Booting from Disk0

If the image was saved to Disk0, boot that image.

The following boot command loads the PRE3 image from Disk0:

> boot disk0:c10k3-p11-mz

The configuration dialog appears.

You can now proceed to step 9.

Booting from the eboot Image

If you did not save the PRE3 image to a TFTP server, boot the eboot (c10k3-eboot-mz) image stored in
bootflash.

In the following example, the router boots from the eboot image:

> boot bootflash:c10k3-eboot-mz

The configuration dialog appears.

Proceed to the

“Did Not Save the Configuration” section on page 21

.

Step 9

Restore the startup and running configuration of the router.

Saved the Configuration on a CompactFlash Card

If you booted the PRE3 image and saved the previous configuration to a CompactFlash card:

a.

Exit the configuration dialog and restore the previously saved startup and running configuration
from the CompactFlash card.

b.

Update any boot commands to use the new PRE3 image.

The router is available for normal operations and the upgrade is complete.
