HP ProCurve 7000dl Series Basic Management And Configuration Manual page 101

After you configure the boot software settings, enter reload or boot to reboot
the server.
Use the boot [cflash | flash] <filename> option to immediately boot the
router using the specified file. To set the backup boot code, replace <backup
filename> with the name of the file you want the router to boot with in case
the primary boot file you specified is unavailable or corrupted. Replace
<backup boot file location> with flash or cflash.
Bypass. This command allows you to bypass passwords and configurations.
If you are locked out because you have forgotten a console or enable pass-
word, you can reboot the system with the following commands:
bootstrap# bypass passwords
bootstrap# boot
This command will reboot the ProCurve Secure Router using the startup-
config but with all passwords disabled.
If you inadvertently make configuration changes that lock you out of the
router, you may need to bypass the startup-config to keep yourself from being
locked out permanently. You can reboot the router using the default settings
by entering the following commands:
bootstrap# bypass startup-config
bootstrap# boot
Replacing Corrupted Software. If the Secure Router OS software is
invalid or corrupted, you need to load new software. However, the Secure
Router OS may be corrupted to the point that you can no longer access the
CLI or Web browser interface to upgrade it. You can upgrade the Secure Router
OS software from the bootstrap mode by completing the following steps:
1. Configure an IP address for the Ethernet 0/1 interface by entering:
bootstrap# ip address <A.B.C.D> <subnet mask>
In this mode, the subnet mask must be in <A.B.C.D> format. The router
will not accept a prefix length notation.
