Task 11: Save the Current Configuration

Task 12: Reboot the System

Be sure to specify the correct software release (.rel) filename for the router you are using,
as described in "Identifying the Software Release File" on page 118.
NOTE: The destination file must have a .rel extension.
For example:
host1#copy /incoming/releases/erx_x-y-z.rel erx_x-y-z.rel
The software release is copied from the user space to the system space. This process
can take several minutes.
To save the current configuration, use the copy running-configuration command:
host1#copy running-configuration filename.cnf
To reboot the system using the newly installed software:
Access Global Configuration mode.
1.
host1#configure
Configuring from terminal or file [terminal]?
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
host1(config)#
Run the boot system command, specifying the .rel filename of the software release.
2.
For example:
host1(config)#boot system erx_x-y-z.rel
The following message appears when you issue this command:
WARNING: We recommend that you copy the current running-configuration to a file
prior to reloading a different release of software.
Press Ctrl+z to return to Privileged Exec mode.
3.
Verify that the router is ready to boot with the new software release.
4.
host1#show boot
If the old software version is still listed, verify that you completed the previous steps
correctly.
Run the reload command.
5.
host1# reload
The following message appears when you issue this command:
WARNING: Execution of this command will cause the system to reboot. Proceed with
reload? [confirm]
The system reboots. The reboot might take longer than normal because line modules
initialize with the old version of the software, acquire the new version from the SRP
