RE: Booting In Bootrom with the TFTP command (Urgent)
Hi, The 2500 does not do xmodem. If when in boot mode you cannot erase the flash manually it is either knackered or there is also the possibility that the main-board jumper for the flash has been set to write-protect. Fwom the message that you are getting, I would check this.

I had the site console into the router and remove the aaa new-model settings. I was then able to telnet into the router via the s0 interface. The router was in boot mode. I checked the flash and there wasn't an image there. I tried to TFTP a new image over but I got and error message (ERR: Device in READ-ONLY state) so I believe that the flash was damaged by the lightning hit. I inserted a "boot system tftp" command into the config so the router could use the IOS image from site. I reloaded the router. I can't telnet to it anymore, but I can ping the serial. on site the TFTP-server process is using 2.34% of the cpu, so it appears to be sending the image over. ___ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Disclaimer -- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: Booting In Bootrom with the TFTP command (Urgent)
Change your config setting to 0x2102 and it will let you re-program flash. Goto ROM mode and change it from there. $$$ Surf the web and get paid $$$ http://www.spedia.net/cgi-bin/dir/tz.cgi?run=show_svcfl=8vid=vntnet - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 09, 2000 10:42 AM Subject: Booting In Bootrom with the TFTP command (Urgent) ___ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
