Re: How to upgrade ios on 2502 [7:18449]
What a great solution (if you have another router). come to think of that, when I sent out upgrade kits (in the olden days), I used to have one 2500 that was my 'load router', and I'd swap flash in and out of it and send out the flash with the IOS upgrades. The local SEs would then crack the box and install the new flash. forgot all about that...seems like it was 5 years ago (because it was) We started doing that after discovering that it took 2 hours to do a tftp download (6Mbyte) over an international 64kbps serial line, and that those downloads didn't always work sucessfully. My boss decided that the flash cost less than 4 hours of my labor to watch a download fail twice, and the egg on our face when the download did fail.

What I did was remove the Flash and put it in one with An Ethernet port, download the new IOS, then put it back Into the 2502. HTH.

Re: How to upgrade ios on 2502 [7:18449]
I seem to remember a similiar situation and what we did was connect another 2500 to the 2502 via the serial port, set the 2500 up as a tftp server and downloaded the IOS to the 2502.

Addendum/correction RE: How to upgrade ios on 2502 [7:18449]
Okay, in another response I suggested connecting a crossover cable to a PC and using tftp to get the image. well, I re-read the original post and realized he has a T/R port. Whoops. Sorry, just ignore me today! I need more coffee, as usual.

Re: How to upgrade ios on 2502 [7:18449]
I've already replied once and it appears my advice was not taken. :-) Let me be more specific! The 2500 series has a bootable image stored on boot ROMs. Let the router boot normally. If there is no image present it should boot to the config helper image stored on the boot ROMs. From there, using standard IOS commands, specify your default gateway and copy the image to flash using tftp. If you have a tftp server running on a laptop or PC, connect the router to the PC with a crossover cable and get the image from there. As long as you have network connectivity, just define your default gateway and copy the image as usual. If you continue to have problems, please let me know and I'd be glad to help. HTH, John >>> "Paul Lalonde" 9/4/01 11:58:56 AM >>> I think the original responder assumed that you had a second router that you could use. Theoretically, the only way to upgrade a single router like this would be by removing the existing flash memory SIMM and replacing it with another flash memory SIMM that had the IOS version you need.
