Installation Notes
Step 3 At the prompt, confirm the upgrade message. RSL then downloads the selected image.
Alternatives to RSL
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:
• Installing the Router Software by Using the Console or Auxiliary Port
• Installing the Router Software by Using a TFTP Server Application
Note The sample prompts and output shown in the following sections may not be identical to the
prompts displayed on the router console.
Installing the Router Software by Using the Console or Auxiliary Port
This section explains how to use the copy xmodem flash command to install the router software
from the CD-ROM onto the router.
Note The transfer takes place only on the port where you enter the command. If you download the
software by using the console, all console output is discarded for the duration of the transfer. You
can only download files to the router; you cannot copy files from the router. We recommend using
the auxiliary port for this type of software download, because the auxiliary port has hardware flow
control and full modem control. In addition, the transfer does not occupy the system console, so it
is free for other uses.
The following example shows how to use the copy xmodem flash command on a Cisco 2500 series
router:
Router# copy xmodem flash
**** WARNING ****
x/ymodem is a slow transfer protocol limited to the current speed
settings of the auxiliary/console ports. The use of the auxilary
port for this download is strongly recommended.
During the course of the download no exec input/output will be
available.
