Cisco Systems 6000 manual Upgrading from a Pcmcia Card, Upgrading Over the Network

Upgrading to a New Software Release

Upgrading from a PCMCIA Card

Upgrade the CSM from a removable Flash (PCMCIA) card inserted in the supervisor engine as follows:

Step 1 Enable the TFTP server to supply the image from the removable Flash card:

Router>

Router> enable

Router# conf t

Router(config)# tftp-server slotx:c6slb-apc.revision-num.bin

where

x = 0 if the PCMCIA card is installed in supervisor engine PCMCIA slot 0. Step 2 Set up a session between the supervisor engine and the CSM:

Router# session CSM-slot-number0

Step 3 Load the image from the supervisor engine to the CSM:

CSM> upgrade slot0: c6slb-apc.revision-num.bin

Note The supervisor engine can only be installed in chassis slot 1 or slot 2.

Step 4 Reboot the CSM by power cycling the CSM or by issuing the following commands on the supervisor engine console:

router# config t

Router (config)# power cycle module slot-number

Upgrading Over the Network

Upgrade the CSM from an external TFTP server as follows:

Step 1 Create a VLAN on the supervisor engine for the TFTP CSM runtime image download.

Note It is possible to use an existing VLAN. However, for reliability in the download, create a VLAN specifically for the TFTP connection.

Step 2 Configure the interface that is connected to your TFTP server.

Step 3 Add the interface to the VLAN.

Step 4 Enter the ip slb vlan command, as explained in the “Configuring VLANs” section on page 21, to make the VLAN a client VLAN.

Step 5 Add an IP address to the VLAN for the CSM.
