Sample Rcp Download Procedures - Cisco WS-C4003 - Catalyst 4000 Chassis Switch Software Configuration Manual

Chapter 29 Working with System Software Images
Step 3 Download the software image from the rcp server using the copy rcp flash command. When prompted,
enter the IP address or host name of the rcp server and the name of the file to download. On those
platforms that support the Flash file system, you are also prompted for the Flash device to which to copy
the file and the destination filename.
Note
The switch downloads the image file from the rcp server, and copies the image to bootflash.
Note
Step 4 Modify the BOOT environment variable using the set boot system flash device:filename prepend
command, so that the new image boots when you reset the switch. Specify the Flash device (device:) and
the filename of the downloaded image (filename).
Step 5 Reset the switch using the reset system command. If you are connected to the switch through Telnet,
your Telnet session disconnects.
During startup, the Flash memory on the supervisor engine is reprogrammed with the new Flash code.
Step 6 When the switch reboots, enter the show version command to check the version of the code on the
switch.
