The boot command requests the loading of appropriate Remote Access
Concentrator operating software from a cooperating host on the network
or from Flash memory. The command syntax is:
boot [–lv | filename]
Typing the letter q or
A successful boot disables the ROM Monitor.
The boot command accepts a file name for the Remote Access
Concentrator's image. If the file name is not specified, boot displays the
file name that was entered using the image command, and prompts for
one. If you do not provide a file name, or have not defined one for the
Remote Access Concentrator using the image command, boot requests
the default oper.64.enet file.
For more information on the image command, see
page 3-17.
The interface used for booting is determined by the sequence
command.When SELF is selected, the Remote Access Concentrator
checks to be sure that the selected image matches what is in Flash memory.
If it matches, the image in Flash memory is decompressed and loaded
into RAM. If it doesn't match, the Remote Access Concentrator uses the
next interface specified by the sequence command.
For more information on the sequence command, see
on page 3-22.
-C interrupts the boot.
