Boot Configuration Mode Commands

Configuring the Passive SCM Primary Configuration Path

Use the passive primary config-pathcommand to specify the alternate path to a network configuration for the network boot method for the passive SCM. An alternate configuration path allows multiple CSSs to use the same boot image while keeping their configuration information in separate directories. The CSS must be able to access the configuration path through an FTP server (such as a PC or UNIX workstation) as defined through the FTP record for the network boot method.

When using an alternate configuration path, make sure that the path leads to a directory containing the script, log and info subdirectories, and the startup-config file. These subdirectories must contain the files in the corresponding subdirectories in the unZipped boot image. First, create these subdirectories. Then copy the files from the boot image to the subdirectories.

Enter the configuration path for network configuration. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of 64 characters. For example, enter:

(config-boot)#passive primary config-path c:/bootdir/

To remove the primary network configuration path, enter:

(config-boot)#no passive primary config-path

Configuring the Passive SCM Secondary Boot File

Use the passive secondary boot-filecommand to specify the secondary boot image for the passive SCM. Enter the boot file name for the primary boot image as an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of 64 characters. To display a list of boot filenames, enter passive secondary boot-file ?. For example:

(config-boot)#passive secondary boot-file ap0410008

To remove the secondary boot file from the passive SCM, enter:

(config-boot)#no passive secondary boot-file
