The Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets consisting of software images---depending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features.
For a summary of which feature sets are supported on the Cisco AS5300, see the previous "Feature Pack Overview Table" section.
 |
Caution Cisco IOS images with strong encryption (including, but not limited to, 168-bit (3DES) data encryption feature sets) are subject to United States government export controls and have limited distribution. Strong encryption images to be installed outside the United States are likely to require an export license. Customer orders may be denied or subject to delay due to United States government regulations. When applicable, purchaser/user must obtain local import and use authorizations for all encryption strengths. Please contact your sales representative or distributor for more information, or send an e-mail to export@cisco.com. |

This section describes the following topics:
The following information about RSL operations can help you with the installation process:
If any of the following elements apply to your installation, modify the Short Timeout value from the Options dialog box in RSL:
"Failed to configure the router to enable the Cisco IOS software image and configuration file upload and download operations. You may want to check the router to make sure that the selected interface exists."If you are connecting to a Cisco AS5200, increase the Short Timeout value to 60 seconds. The Cisco AS5200 requires up to 45 seconds to write a configuration to nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) due to the number of interfaces the it must check during this process.
If you are connecting to any other router or access server, increase the Short Timeout to a value over 25 seconds.
|
Note If you change the timeout value, you must do so before connecting to the access server, or the new value will not be used. Also, increasing the Short Timeout value can increase the time it takes for RSL to connect to the target access server. |
In some cases, RSL is unable to restore the startup configuration. If this happens, follow these steps:
Step 2 Restart RSL and connect by using the Preconfigured router option.
Step 3 When asked if you want to overwrite the existing startup configuration file, choose no.
Step 4 When asked if you want to continue, choose yes.
Step 5 When the access server is connected, select Download Router Configuration in the Router Software Loader dialog box.
Step 6 Select the appropriate file and click the radio button beside Copy configuration to the router nonvolatile memory. The access server should now contain the startup configuration it had before the initial RSL connection.
Step 7 Exit RSL.
|
Note In the steps above, the access server configuration register (config-register 0xnnnn) is not restored. |
|
Note If you press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to quit RSL, the router configuration and the configuration register are not restored. However, the configuration file is not deleted from the PC. To restore the configuration file, follow the steps above, beginning with Step 2. |
RSL is designed to work with a PC running Microsoft Windows 95 and is the recommended method for downloading software to the router; however, two alternatives are available for installing router software:
|
Note The sample prompts and output shown in the following sections may not be identical to the prompts displayed on the access server console. |
This section explains how to use the copy xmodem flash command to install the router software from the CD-ROM onto the router.
The following example shows how to use the copy xmodem flash command on a Cisco AS5300 router:
Router# copy xmodem flash**** WARNING ****x/ymodem is a slow transfer protocol limited to the current speedsettings of the auxiliary/console ports. The use of the auxilaryport for this download is strongly recommended.During the course of the download no exec input/output will beavailable.---- ******* ---- Proceed?

This section explains how to install the Cisco IOS software onto Cisco access servers using a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server or remote ropy protocol (rcp) server application. Because TFTP and rcp require familiarity with the Cisco IOS command line interface, we recommend using the Router Software Loader (RSL) application on your software feature pack CD-ROM whenever possible.
|
Note You can use the TFTP application with Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX systems; however, you can use the TFTP server included on this software feature-pack CD-ROM only with a PC running Windows 95. For other operating systems, you can find a number of TFTP or rcp applications from independent software vendors or as shareware from public sources on the World Wide Web. |
Install the TFTP server or rcp server applications on a TCP/IP-ready workstation. After you install the application, configure the TFTP application to operate as a TFTP server. After you configure the application, specify the outbound file directory. In the outbound file directory, find the Cisco IOS images. TFTP applications provide a setup routine to assist you with these configuration tasks.
|
Note For detailed troubleshooting information, refer to TFTP Upgrade Instructions on the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) web site. |
|
Note Cisco recommends that you back up the router configuration before upgrading the router software. |
Step 2 Start the TFTP server application by either clicking the Cisco TFTP Server icon or choosing Programs from the Start menu and then selecting Cisco TFTP server.
Step 3 Set up the TFTP server root directory to be the location for the image files. From the menu bar, select View and then Options.
Step 4 In the TFTP server root directory field, click Browse to locate the directory that contains the files to copy to the Cisco AS5300. From the Browse for the TFTP Server Root Directory window, select a root directory and click OK.
Step 5 In the Options window, click OK.
Step 6 Complete the file transfer by using the Cisco IOS Planner to determine the image to load and the memory requirements for that image. Access the Cisco IOS Planner by going to the Cisco homepage (www.cisco.com) and logging in, then click on Software Center under the Service & Support heading. You should arrive at the Technical Assistance Center (TAC). Click on Cisco IOS Software, then scroll down to the bottom of the Cisco IOS Software page, and click on the Upgrade Planner link. You should see Cisco IOS Planner at the top of the page.
Step 7 Select your Platform, Release, and Software Feature to load onto the access server.You should see the Minimum Recommended Memory to download image below the table.
Step 8 To determine the amount of memory currently running on your access server, use the command show version on your router. Write down the configuration register value displayed in the last line of output from the command show version. Save this data to use in Step 13.
Step 9 Verify that the selected Platform, Release, and Software Feature are correct. If so, continue with the download.
Step 10 Establish a direct console session or virtual Telnet connection to the access server.
To prevent losing a Telnet connection during the reboot phase of this software installation (Step 17), use a direct console connection between the access server console port and the PC COM-port.
Step 11 Launch the hyperterminal on the PC, using the following settings:
Speed 9600 bits per second 8 databits 0 parity bits 1 stop bit No Flow Control
Step 12 Change the access server into Rxboot mode.
Change the config register to the value 0x2101 as follows:
Router> enable Password: <password> Router# Router# conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)# config-register 0x2101 Router(config)# ^Z Router# %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console Router# wr mem Building configuration... [OK] Router# Router# reload
|
Note If connected by Telnet and you lose the session following the reload, try again after a few minutes. |
Step 13 Use the following sequence of commands to restore the previous configuration register value for the next reload. Replace the asterisks (****) with the configuration register value you recorded in (Step 8):
Router(boot) > Router(boot) > en Password: <password> Router(boot)# conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(boot)(config)# con Router(boot)(config)# config-register 0x**** Router(boot)(config)# ^Z
|
Caution Do not save anything while in boot mode. Avoid using the save commands (write mem or copy run start) and answer no to any question that suggests saving your current configuration. If you save data while in this mode you can partially or completely erase your configuration. |
|
Note If you did not keep a copy of the configuration register in Step 10, use 0x2102 in the following step. |
Step 14 Check the IP addresses of the TFTP server and the access server targeted for the TFTP software upgrade to be sure the addresses are within the same range.
Step 15 Ping the access server from the TFTP server to verify that a network connection exists between them.
|
Caution Cisco recommends that you keep a copy of the access server configuration before upgrading the access server software. |
Step 16 Copy the new software image from the TFTP server to the access server.
Router> enable Password: <password> Router# Router# copy tftp flash
Step 17 Specify the IP address of the TFTP server.
When prompted, enter the IP address of the TFTP server as in the following example:
Address or name of remote host [255.255.255.255]? 172.17.247.195
Step 18 Specify the filename of the new Cisco IOS software image.
When prompted, enter the filename of the Cisco IOS software image that you will install, as in the following example:
Source file name? aaa1430
|
Note The image name varies depending on the filename of the image on the TFTP server. |
Step 19 Specify the destination image filename.
This is the name that you call the new software image once loaded onto the access server. The image can be named anything, but common practice is to use the UNIX image filename.
Destination file name [aaa1430]? c5300-is-mz.112-18.P
Step 20 Erase the Flash memory device before writing yes or no.
When prompted, enter yes to erase the existing software image in the access server Flash memory before copying the new one.
Enter no to keep the existing Cisco IOS image. Verify that you have enough memory to keep both.
Erase flash device before writing? [confirm] yes/no
The copying process takes several minutes; the time differs from network to network. During the transfer process, a listing of the files that are accessed is displayed.
The exclamation point (!) indicates that the copy process is taking place. Each exclamation point (!) indicates that ten packets were transferred successfully.
A checksum verification of the image occurs after the image is written to Flash memory. The access server reloads itself with the new image when the software upgrade is complete.
Step 21 Before reloading, check that the image is properly installed in Flash memory and that the Boot system commands point to the proper file to load. Then type:
Router(boot)# reload *Mar 1 00:30:49.972: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by consoled System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: no Proceed with reload? [confirm] yes
Step 22 After the reload is complete, use the command show version to verify that the access server is now running with the desired Cisco image. After reload is complete, the access server should run the desired Cisco IOS image.
