You can also specify an interactive boot, which allows you to enter a separate command after the interface module comes up. The
command specifies the source from which one or all interface modules should boot.
When changing the boot source for one or all interface modules, you can specify one of the following:
•
An immediate boot for one interface module from a specified source
•
An automatic boot for one or all interface modules from a specified source starting with the next software reload or system reset
and each reload or reset after that
The CLI command for specifying an immediate boot for one interface module is the same as that for specifying an automatic boot for
one or all modules. The only difference is the CLI level from which you execute the command. You must specify the command for an
immediate boot in the Privileged EXEC level and the command for an automatic boot in the global CONFIG level.
The following sections explain how to specify an immediate boot and an automatic boot.
Specifying an immediate boot
You can specify an immediate boot for one interface module from a specified source by entering the
lp boot system
command in the
Privileged EXEC level. The entered command will override the default or configured boot source one time only.
Specifying an immediate boot from the auxiliary flash slots on the management module
To specify an immediate boot for the interface module installed in slot 1 from the auxiliary flash slot on the management module, enter
the
lp boot system
command at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI.
device# lp boot system slot1 primary 1
Syntax:
lp boot system
[
slot1
|
slot2
]
filename
slot-number
•
The
slot1
and
slot2
keywords indicate the auxiliary flash slot on the management module from which to boot the interface
module.
•
The
filename
parameter specifies the name of the image from which to boot the interface module.
•
The
slot-number
parameter specifies the device slot number that contains the interface module that will undergo an immediate
boot. You can specify 1 - 4 for 4-slot devices, 1 - 8 for 8-slot devices, 1 - 16 for 16-slot devices, or 1 - 32 for 32-slot
devices.
Specifying an immediate boot from management module flash memory
To specify an immediate boot from the primary image on the management module for the interface module installed in slot 1, enter the
following command at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI.
device# lp boot system mp primary 1
Syntax:
lp boot system mp
[
primary
|
secondary
]
slot-number
•
The
primary
and
secondary
keywords specify the primary or secondary software image in flash memory on the management
module.
•
The
slot-number
parameter specifies the device slot number that contains the interface module that will undergo an immediate
boot.You can specify 1 - 4 for 4-slot devices, 1 - 8 for 8-slot devices, 1 - 16 for 16-slot devices, or 1 - 32 for 32-slot
devices.
