Why Would I Upgrade the System Image?

System images contain the Cisco IOS software. Your router was shipped with an image installed.
The Cisco 1941W access point runs a Cisco IOS image that is separate from the Cisco IOS image on the
Note
router.
At some point, you may want to load a different image onto the router or the access point. For example,
you may want to upgrade your IOS software to the latest release, or you may want to use the same Cisco
IOS release for all the routers in a network. Each system image contains different sets of Cisco IOS
features, therefore select an appropriate system image to suit your network requirements.
