microcode

To specify the location of the microcode that you want to download from Flash memory into the writable control store (WCS) on a Cisco 7000 series with RSP7000 or Cisco 7500 series, use the microcode global configuration command. Use the no form of this command to load the microcode bundled with the system image.

microcode interface [flash-filesystem:filename [slot] | system [slot]]
no microcode interface [flash-filesystem:filename [slot] | system [slot]]

interface

One of the following interface processor names: aip, cip, eip, feip, fip, fsip, hip, mip, sip, sp, ssp, trip, vip, or vip2.

flash-filesystem:

(Optional) Flash file system. The colon is required. Valid file systems include bootflash, slot0, and slot1.

Slave devices such as slaveslot0 are invalid. The slave's file system is not available during microcode reloads.

filename

(Optional) Name of the microcode file.

slot

(Optional) Number of the slot. Range is 0 to 15.

system

(Optional) If system is specified, the router loads the microcode from the microcode bundled into the system image you are running for that interface type.


microcode (Cisco IOS image)

To load a Cisco IOS software image on a line card from Flash memory or the GRP card on a Cisco  12000 series Gigabit Switch Router, use the microcode global configuration command. To load the microcode bundled with the GRP system image, use the no form of this command.

microcode interface {flash file-id [slot] | system [slot]}
no microcode interface [flash file-id [slot] | system [slot]]

interface

One of the following interface names: oc12-atm, oc12-pos, or oc3-pos-4.

flash

Loads the image from the Flash file system.

file-id

Specifies the device and filename of the image file to download. A colon (:) must separate the device and filename (for example, slot0:gsr-p-mz). Valid devices are as follows:

· bootflash---Internal Flash memory.

· slot0---First PCMCIA slot.

· slot1---Second PCMCIA slot.

slot

(Optional) Slot number of the line card that you want to copy the software image to. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco  12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. If you do not specify a slot number, the Cisco IOS software image is downloaded on all line cards.

system

Loads the image from the software image on the GRP card.


microcode reload

To reload the Cisco IOS image on a line card on the Cisco 7000 series with RSP7000, Cisco 7500 series, or Cisco 12000 series routers after all microcode configuration commands have been entered, use the microcode reload global configuration command.

microcode reload [slot-number]

slot-number

(Optional) Slot number of the line card that you want to reload the Cisco  IOS software image on. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. If you do not specify a slot number, the Cisco  IOS software image is reloaded on all line cards.


more flh:logfile

To view the system console output generated during the Flash load helper operation, use the more  flh:logfile privileged EXEC command.

more flh:logfile

set card-message

To specify the message that is displayed on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards, use the set card-message privileged EXEC command. To remove the message, use the clear card-message global command.

set card-message {all | slot slot-number} [expire seconds] [blink seconds] message

all

Specifies that the LED message is set on all line cards.

slot slot-number

Specifies that the LED message is set on a specific line card. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008.

expire seconds

(Optional) Specifies how long the message is displayed on the front panel LED. The range is 0 to 31536000 seconds. When you select 0, the message remains on the LED until you clear it by using the clear card-message command. When the time expires, the user-specified message is removed, and the LED displays the status message based on the line card's last state.

blink seconds

(Optional) Specifies how often the message blinks (that is, goes on and off) in seconds. The range is 1 to 10 seconds. If blink is not specified, the message does not blink.

message

Specifies the text to display on the LED on the front panel of one or more line cards. The message can be up to eight alphanumeric characters (four characters per line).


show flh-log

The more flh:logfile command replaces the show flh-log command. Refer to the more flh command for more information.

show microcode

To show the microcode bundled into a Cisco 7000 series with RSP7000 or Cisco 7500 series system, use the show  microcode EXEC command.

show microcode

verify bootflash:

Either of the identical verify bootflash: or verify bootflash commands replaces the copy verify bootflash command.

verify flash:

Either of the identical verify flash: or verify flash commands replaces the copy verify flash command.

xmodem

To copy a Cisco  IOS image to a Cisco  1600 series or Cisco 3600 series router using the ROM monitor and the Xmodem or Ymodem protocol, use the xmodem ROM monitor command.

xmodem [-c] [-y] [-e] [-f] [-r] [-x] [-s data-rate] [filename]

-c

(Optional) CRC-16 checksumming, which is more sophisticated and thorough than standard checksumming.

-y

(Optional) Uses Ymodem protocol for higher throughput.

-e

(Optional) Erases the first partition in Flash memory before starting the download. This option is only valid for the Cisco  1600.

-f

(Optional) Erases all of Flash memory before starting the download. This option is only valid for the Cisco  1600.

-r

(Optional) Downloads the file to DRAM. The default is Flash memory.

-x

(Optional) Do not execute Cisco  IOS image on completion of the download.

-s data-rate

(Optional) Sets the console port's data rate during file transfer. Values are 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, and 115200 bps. The default rate is specified in the configuration register. This option is only valid for the Cisco  1600 series.

filename

(Optional) Filename to copy. This argument is ignored when -r is specified, because only one file can be copied to DRAM. On the Cisco 1600 series, files are loaded to the ROM for execution.
