Hi.. Sorry some more questions. 1)I found although there are 5 module in my switch, when I do "sh flash", only one binary flash file appear. Which module does the belong to? The files in flash belong to the supervisor module. Each 5000/6000 series switch needs at least 1 supervisor module. 2)How to see the flash code file for other module. I found I can only go to the RSM by typing "session 4" and find out the flash ver. But I can't go to other modules like standby supervisor and 10/100BaseTX Ethernet. the other modules such as gig blades(6500) and line cards(10/100 & 100fx) dont have flash files. they have some firmware and they get software loaded by the supervisor...you'll see the same s/w version on them as the supervisor when you do a 'show ver' 3)I found that there is a entry in my switch config, set boot system flash bootflash:cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin. It should be refer to my main supervisor module and I know where the RSM config. But is there any configuration file for standby supervisor module and 10/100100BaseTX Ethernet module? If yes, how to see them, Do we have to set the boot system flash in their config? the config in the supervisor or the rsm/msfc is the only config the switch uses.. you set up the ports in the switch and most other configurable areas with the supervisor or rsm config....the other modules dont have configs. 4)I found the URL http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat5000/c5krn/sw_rns/78_ 6583.htm#xtocid3 is to show the various flash code's release note. Do you know the flash upgrade guide for cat5505. you can check the ios/catos versions online at cco. It will depend on which supervisor module you have, and how much memory it has... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Cat55-L8-1> (enable) sh module Mod Slot Ports Module-Type Model Status --- ---- ----- ------------------------- ------------------- -------- 1 1 2 1000BaseSX Supervisor WS-X5534 ok 2 2 2 1000BaseSX Supervisor WS-X5534 standby 3 3 24 10/100BaseTX Ethernet WS-X5225R ok 4 4 1 Route Switch WS-X5302 ok 5 5 24 10/100BaseTX Ethernet WS-X5225R ok Cat55-L8-1> (enable) sh flash -#- ED --type-- --crc--- -seek-- nlen -length- -----date/time------ name 1 .D ffffffff a638976e 3627ec 23 3286891 Mar 10 2000 18:17:19 cat5000-sup3.4-3-1a.bi n 2 .. ffffffff ce0e4293 70f7e8 22 3854201 Apr 25 2000 04:47:50 cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin #set boot command set boot config-register 0x102 set boot system flash bootflash:cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin -----Original Message----- From: Robertson, Douglas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 9:00 PM To: Sim, CT (Chee Tong); [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: software upgrade for Cat5505 switch for each module? [7: 37382 ] Review the following document on CCO, http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat5000/c5krn/sw_rns/78_ 6583.htm#xtocid3 the document indicates the upgrade path for Catalyst 5000 switches, it also has a table that shows which versions of CAT OS is supported by each module. Depending on what you needs are you may have to upgrade all the modules, the RSM runs IOS and will have different criteria to consider when upgrading. To upgrade the module you can use the following command : download . The download first checks to see if the downloaded image is correct for the particular module it then installs the image. As far as which image you would require depends on the type of hardware you are downloading to, for the supervisor cards you need to determine if they are supII, supIII, or supII gigabit.

[7: 37383 ] Sup III cards require sup3 code. The versions that just say sup are for Sup I & II cards. Sup III cards have slots for Flash Cards. If you have those, then you can store multiple images. You must have a line in your config something like "boot system flash: image name" If your switch goes looking for a file that no longer exists it becomes unhappy. Version 6 of Cat code requires 64 MB of DRAM. There may also be a Firmware requirement. Check the docs for the desired image. Some of the first paragraphs will explain the requirements. The RSM is a router on a blade. It has its own IOS image that you would load seperately. -----Original Message----- From: Sim, CT (Chee Tong) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 4:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: software upgrade for Cat5505 switch for each module? [7:37382] Hi.. I want to upgrade my catalyst 5505 switch (set based switch). I have never done it for set based cat5505 before and I found that there are a lot of modules in my switch, eg two supervisor module and two 10/100TX Ethernet, one RSM. Do I have upgrade the IOS for every modules? I found that when I type show flash, I got only binary file cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin. Can I just download the binary file from web eg cat5000-sup3.5-5-7a.bin and then upgrade by typing copy tftp flash. Will cat5000-sup3.5-5-7a.bin overwrite the old cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin or there will be two copy of binary file in the flash. I saw there are a few type of flash code eg Catalyst 5000 Supervisor G Flash Code, Catalyst 5000 Supervisor 3 Flash Code, and Catalyst 5000 Supervisor Flash Code. Can I use any one of them.
