Image Installation Tips and Troubleshooting When Using RSL Recovering from a Connection Error If any of the following elements apply to your installation, modify the Short Timeout value from the Options dialog box in RSL: • • • You are connecting to a router or access server that has a large configuration file. You are connecting to a Cisco AS5200 access server.
Installation Notes Loading Images on CiscoPro Routers When Using RSL Prerequisites By default, non-CiscoPro software images cannot be loaded on CiscoPro routers; however, RSL has a utility to permanently upgrade CiscoPro routers so they can accept the Cisco IOS Release 12.0 images. When a CiscoPro router is upgraded, the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) SysObjectID MIB value (used for network management), is changed to that of a normal Cisco router.
Alternatives to RSL Note The Cisco 2500 series upgrade utility filename is cpa2500-upgrade-l.120-6. The upgrade utility is a special file—not a Cisco IOS run-time image, and must be located in the Images directory. If it is not, the upgrade utility informs you that the image is not present. Step 3 At the prompt, confirm the upgrade message. RSL then downloads the selected image.

Alternatives to RSL Step 4 Establish a console session from your local PC (which is now configured as a TFTP server) to the Cisco router by using one of these methods: • Connect the PC com port to the router console port. This is the recommended method. When you reload the router with the new image in Step 20, you remain connected to the router. • Establish a Telnet session from the PC to the router. If you choose to use Telnet, your connection to the router will be lost when it is reloaded.
Installation Notes During the transfer process, messages indicate that the software has accessed the file you have specified and is loading it. If the software cannot find the file, check the following: • • • • The filename is correct. The TFTP server is enabled. The correct root directory is selected. There is IP connectivity between the router and TFTP server.
Related Documentation Step 17 At the prompt, enter the filename of the Cisco IOS Release 12.0 image to be copied to the router, as shown in the following example: Source file name? 80153209.bin This example specifies the DOS image name of the IP feature set for Cisco 2500 series routers (as shown in Table 4 in the “Feature Pack Overview Table” section on page 6). Step 18 At the prompt, enter the destination UNIX image filename and press Enter.
