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.
