184 ! Copying Release Files from One E-series Router to Another
:boot##boot system erx_x-y-z.rel
The following message appears when you issue this command:
WARNING: It is recommended that you copy the current running-configuration to a
file prior to reloading a different release of software.
2. Run the reload command.
:boot##reload
The following message appears when you issue this command:
WARNING: Execution of this command will cause the system to reboot. Proceed
with reload? [confirm]
The system reboots. The reboot may take longer than normal because line
modules initialize with the old version of the software, acquire the new version
from the SRP module, and reinitialize. When you observe the LEDs on the line
modules, the line modules appear to boot twice.
Copying Release Files from One E-series Router to Another
When you have copied the release files from a network host to one E-series router,
you can transfer files from that E-series router to other E-series routers on the
network. This feature is useful when:
! The other E-series routers are unreachable from the network host but have
network connectivity to the E-series router on which you installed the new
software.
! The connection between E-series routers is faster than the connection between
an E-series router and the network host to which it is connected.
The procedures for transferring release files from a source E-series router to a
destination E-series router are almost identical to transferring release files from a
network host to an E-series router on the same side of the firewall.
To transfer release files from a source E-series router to a destination E-series router,
follow the instructions in Installing Software When a Firewall Does Not Exist, with the
following changes:
! Substitute the source E-series router for the network host.
! Omit the step about mounting the CD.
! Copy the file to the system space of the second E-series router from the user
space of the first E-series router.
NOTE: You must enable the FTP server on the source E-series router.
