Tip If your entire router configuration is less than 256 kb in size, completely configure the router with RRC
using only one Cisco IOS configuration file.
Step 2 Write down the following information:
• IP address for the TFTP server: _____________________
• File path: _____________________
• Filename: _____________________
You need this information in Step 3.
Step 3 Write the download initiation file used by switch software to access the TFTP server. Save the file with
the following filename:
dnld.rtr
For more information on the download initiation file, see Example 2-2.
Example 2-2 Sample Download Initiation File Used by Switch Software to Locate a TFTP Server
During RRC
tftp_request
IP: 172.29.17.134
PathName: /usr/users/svplus/images/
Filename: rmtrtr.cnf
Step 4 Write down the IP address of the workstation or server used to store the download initiation file here:
_____________________. You need it in Step 6.
Step 5 (Optional) Remove any previous Cisco IOS configuration files from NPM memory with the switch
software clrrtrcnf command.
Step 6 Authorize the TFTP server for TFTP put with the switch software cnfrtrcnfmastip ip_address
command.
Tip Check the IP address you enter with the cnfrtrtcnfmastip command, since the IP address used in Step 4
and Step 6 may be different from the IP address for the TFTP server on which you stored the initial router
configuration file in Step 1.
Step 7 Use TFTP put to transfer the download initiation file, dnld.rtr, to the IGX. Switch software downloads
the Cisco IOS configuration file from the TFTP server using the IP address, path, and filename specified
in the download initiation file. The Cisco IOS configuration file is then stored in NPM memory.
Step 8 (Optional) Monitor the progress of the Cisco IOS configuration file download from the TFTP server
with the switch software dsprtrcnfdnld command.
Tip You can also use dsprtrcnfdnld to monitor the copying of the Cisco IOS configuration file from the
NPM to the admin Flash on the URM.
Step 9 Copy the Cisco IOS configuration file from the IGX NPM to the admin Flash on the URM card with the
switch software burnrtrrcnf slot config_file_name command.
