Chapter 3 Installing the Router

Using Flash Memory Cards in the RP

Copying a Configuration File from RP DRAM to a Flash Memory Card

To copy the running configuration file from DRAM to a Flash memory card, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter the command for copying a running configuration file from DRAM to a Flash memory card. The command takes the following form:

copy running-config [slot0:slot1:]filename

where:

running-config

Specifies the DRAM source of the file to be copied.

[slot0: slot1:]filename Specifies the destination of the configuration file to be copied (the Flash memory card inserted in either slot 0 or slot 1) and the name of the new file.

An example of the copy running-config slot0:filename command follows:

Router# copy running-config slot0:myfile2

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

Loading new.image from 1.1.1.1 (via Ethernet0):

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![OK - 7799951/15599616 bytes]

CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC Router#

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.

Step 2 To further verify that the file was copied correctly, enter the dir command at the privileged EXEC mode prompt:

Router# dir slot0:
