Chapter 4 System Startup and Basic System Configuration

Configuring the Software Configuration Register

For example, the filename formation process may yield a range of typical filenames like the following:

cisco2-grp

.

.

.

cisco17-grp

The system uses one of the filenames in this range to boot a default system image stored on a network TFTP server.

Note If a bootable Cisco IOS software image exists in a flash memory card inserted in slot 0 or slot 1, the software configuration register boot field setting is overridden. The system boots from the image in the flash memory card, rather than from a network TFTP image (that is, from a computed filename in the range from cisco2-grpthrough cisco17-grpon the GRP and cisco2-prpthrough cisco17-prpon the PRP).

Changing Software Configuration Register Settings

Use the following procedure to change software configuration register settings while running system software.

Step 1 Enter the enable command and password (if prompted).

Milo> enable

Step 2 Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode.

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
