Command History
Usage Guidelines
By default, the Cisco uBR10012 router automatically loads all required microcode on to the PXF
processors and other line cards when it loads the Cisco IOS software image. Also, the PRE1 module
automatically reloads the microcode on a card when certain faults occur, allowing the card to recover
from the fault.
You can reload the microcode on the PRE1 module or on all line cards that support downloadable
microcode by using the
microcode reload
command. Typically, this is not needed and should be done
only upon the advice of Cisco TAC or field service engineers.
Tip
You can also reload the microcode on the PXF processors or on all cards using the
microcode
command
in global configuration mode.
Examples
The following example shows how to reload the microcode on all PRE processors and line cards that
support downloadable microcode:
