Managing the XSR
Using the Bootrom Update Utility
The Bootrom update utility upgrades the boot flash sectors of the on-board
Flash memory. This update tool functions similar to the
bU command but also
can be executed from a Telnet session, allowing Bootrom updates to be
performed remotely. The utility runs as a standalone program and can
recognize both old (1.x) and new (2.01) versions of the Bootrom file format.
After you complete the Bootrom update, the XSR will reboot.
Note that screen-captured XSR text is displayed in Courier font. User-
required input appears in larger, bold Courier font.
1 From a remote Telnet session, at a CLI prompt, configure the "boot-
config" file to your current software file residing in flash: (the default is
xsr1800.fls; if your Bootrom version is earlier than 1.16, the default
is
xsr1805.fls). Enter:
XSR(config)#boot system xsr1800.fls
xsr1800.fls saved into flash:boot-config
2 Exit to EXEC mode and verify this setting by entering: more boot-
config
. Be sure that at least 2 MBytes of flash file space is available
by entering the dir command. If file space is low, delete unnecessary
files. The following files are required (
xsr1800.fls may be replaced
by the current software file):
XSR-1805#dir
