Hi Jim,
Usually if your ethernet interface on the 4000 is plugged into a dumb hub,
then when you boot up the 4000, it should bring up the ethernet interface
pretty fast which should allow the 4000 to talk to the tftp
server(10.1.1.9 in your case) right away. Unless you plug your 4000's
ethernet interface into one of those catalyst switches( like the 19xx,
29xx, 35xx, etc..), then it takes about 30 seconds for the
"autonegotiation" for speed and duplex-mode to sync up. If you're using a
catalyst, then an easy way go into the switch and enable spanningtree
portfast.
Hope it'll help you.
