Cisco Systems Mastering the Cisco Monitor Command for Configuration in VG224

Appendix C Using the ROM Monitor

Entering the ROM Monitor Mode

To change the virtual configuration register from the ROM monitor, enter confreg by itself for menu mode, or enter the new value of the register in hexadecimal.

confreg [hexnum]—Change the virtual configuration register to the value specified. The value is always interpreted as hexadecimal.

Note Entering confreg without an argument displays the contents of the virtual configuration register and prompts you to alter the contents by describing the meaning of each bit. In either case, the new virtual configuration register value is written into NVRAM, but is not effective until you reset or power-cycle the router.

The following display shows an example of the confreg command:

Using the show rom-monitor command

The show rom-monitorcommand displays the current version of the read-only ROM monitor and, if present displays the upgrade version of the ROM monitor. The upgrade version is selected when the system is rebooted. This command runs in the Cisco IOS EXEC mode.

You get the following output when the read only ROM monitor is present:
