Chapter 3 Configurations for the Layer 3 Switch Router

Using the Bootflash Memory SIMM

Note

When bootflash memory is full, it is important to make a copy of a known good image file, and then

 

 

 

copy a new system image file. If the new image file you copy from the TFTP server becomes

 

 

 

corrupted, you can revert to the copy of the known good system image file. For detailed information

 

 

 

on how to make a copy of a known good image file, and then copy a new system image file, see the

 

 

 

“Copying the System Image to the Layer 3 Switch Router” section on page 3-13.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To erase and clean bootflash memory and then copy the new system image from the TFTP server to

 

 

 

bootflash memory, perform the following procedure, beginning in privileged EXEC mode:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Command

 

 

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

 

 

Router# dir bootflash:

 

Display the contents of bootflash memory,

 

 

 

 

 

 

including the names of the images that

 

 

 

 

 

 

currently reside there.

Step 2

 

 

 

 

Router# copy tftp: bootflash:

 

Erase bootflash memory and copy a file from

 

 

 

 

 

 

a TFTP server to bootflash memory.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following example demonstrates how to erase and clean bootflash memory and then copy the new

 

 

 

system image from the TFTP server to the bootflash memory SIMM.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

To erase a full bootflash memory, enter yes when you are prompted to confirm erasing bootflash

 

 

 

memory.
