Ready to upload new firmware into flash.  Select baud rate:

    1 -    300 baud
    2 -   1200 baud
    3 -   2400 baud
    4 -   4800 baud
    5 -   9600 baud
    6 -  19200 baud
    7 -  38400 baud
    8 -  57600 baud
    9 - 115200 baud

See Table 3-4 for approximate software load times according to baud rate.

Step 7 Change the baud rate of the terminal emulation software to the rate indicated in Table 3-4.

Step 8 From the terminal, load the file containing the new software by following the prompts from your terminal emulation program. The file is sent as an ASCII (Text) file to the router. The LINE LED should blink throughout the loading process.

Note Select ASCII on the terminal emulation software you are using.

Step 9 When the software has been downloaded, you will be prompted to change the terminal emulator's baud rate back to 9600, and then you will be prompted to press any key.

If the load is successful, the LINE LED will turn off, and the RDY LED should be on. If the load was not successful, refer to Table 3-5 for possible symptoms and solutions.

Table 3-5 : Software Load Command Troubleshooting

Symptom Probable Cause/Solution

Load takes significantly longer than the approximate time listed in Table 3-4. The terminal emulation program's interline and inter-character delays are not set to zero.

The terminal displays unrecognizable text after the load is completed. The terminal has not been reset to 9600 baud. Reset the terminal anytime after loading the new software. After changing the terminal baud rate, press Return to gain access to the standard prompt (>).

Two or more LEDs are blinking. Incorrect configuration of the PC's COM port or a defective console cable. Press Escape on the terminal and try the software load again.

Symptom	Probable Cause/Solution
Load takes significantly longer than the approximate time listed in Table 3-4.	The terminal emulation program's interline and inter-character delays are not set to zero.
The terminal displays unrecognizable text after the load is completed.	The terminal has not been reset to 9600 baud. Reset the terminal anytime after loading the new software. After changing the terminal baud rate, press Return to gain access to the standard prompt (>).
Two or more LEDs are blinking.	Incorrect configuration of the PC's COM port or a defective console cable. Press Escape on the terminal and try the software load again.

The following are the steps performed before the software load tftp command is entered.

Before beginning this procedure, you should configure your workstation to operate as a TFTP server. In server mode, the workstation will only accept put requests for the file.

Step 1 Confirm that the new software and, optionally, the new configuration file are installed on the client machine.

Step 2 Confirm that the Cisco router can be reached from the client machine by pinging the router to the client's router:


Host>


ping


client's

ip address

Caution Once the software load tftp command is entered, the existing software is erased. If a catastrophic event, such as a power failure, occurs before the transfer of the CODE file has been completed, the Cisco router must be initialized through the configuration port.

Step 3 Enter the software load command to configure the Cisco router for TFTP server mode:


Host>


swl tftp


Are you sure? yes


Erasing Flash memory, please standby...


Ready for software load.

Note Entering the software load tftp command on the Cisco router causes it to enter TFTP server mode and wait for client requests. The TFTP server mode will timeout in one minute. If the transfer is successful, the Cisco router will reboot with the new software and the new configuration (if a new configuration file was loaded).

Note On the TFTP client machine, you must use binary file transfer mode to transfer the new software file. The remote file name must be set to CODE.

test

To generate test packets, use the test command.
