RE: Catalyst 3550 SMI or EMI [7:64442]

2003-03-05 Thread Steve Wilson
On the 3550 devices that I have the label on the back indicates whether it
is EMI or SMI, beyond that if you can type in the command IP ROUTING it
would seem logical that it is an EMI rather than an SMI. Seriously though
the software revision has all the information needed, you just need to
understand what the filename means.

How do I know if a catalyst 3550 is running EMI or SMI image. I tried using
show version but that gave me no clue.

Thanks

I believe the SMI does RIP routing, so this is not necessarily proof.

the label on the switch only tells what the device was when Cisco shipped.
It is common practice for sellers on e-bay to up the image to EMI and sell
the boxes as EMI to command a few more bucks.

the sh ver will also proclaim the device as SMI, even with the EMI image
loaded.

I coulda sworn that there was somewhere else in the output that indicated
the image type, but it doesn't surprise me that I am wrong.

   Yes the SMI image will support RIP.

   It's really quite obvious;)

i5q3l2-mz.121-11.EA1.bin = EMI

sure? I think it's there somewhere...

if nothing else, the SMI image contains an i9 while the EMI image contains
and i5

c3550-i9q3l2-mz.121-12c.EA1.bin  = smi

c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-12c.EA1.bin = emi
