Chapter 3 Installing the Router

Using Flash Memory Cards in the RP

To copy a file to Flash memory, enter the following command at the privileged EXEC mode prompt on your system console:

Router# copy tftp:filename [bootflash:slot0:slot1:] filename

where:

 

tftp:filename

Specifies the source and name of the file to be

 

copied.

[bootflash: slot0: slot1:] filename

Specifies the destination Flash medium and name for the new file. The destination Flash medium can be one of the following:

bootflash:—The file will be copied to the onboard Flash memory SIMM on the RP.

slot0:—The file will be copied to the PCMCIA Flash memory card in slot 0.

slot1:—The file will be copied to the PCMCIA Flash memory card in slot 1.

Example of output generated by a copy tftp:filename command:

Router# copy tftp:myfile1 slot0:myfile1

20575008 bytes available on device slot0, proceed? [confirm] Address or name of remote host [1.1.1.1]?

In this example, the exclamation points (!) appear as the source file is being downloaded to the destination device. The CCCCC characters indicate that a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is being calculated during the downloading process. The CRC verifies that the file has been correctly downloaded to the Flash memory card inserted in PCMCIA slot 0 or the designated destination device.
