Release Notes for the 4-MB Catalyst 2900 Series XL Cisco IOS Release 11.2(8.6)SA6
OL-0332-02
Upgrading to a New Software Release
Note If you want to copy the IOS image file or HTML files separately to the switch, follow the
upgrade procedure in the release notes that came with your switch, or refer to CCO for the
Catalyst 2900 series XL release notes for IOS Release 11.2(8)SA4.
If you are unsure whether your switch has 4 MB or 8 MB of memory, you can verify memory capacity
at Step 4.
Follow these steps to upgrade the switch software by using the tar command and a TFTP transfer:
Step 1 If your PC or workstation cannot act as a TFTP server, copy the file to a TFTP server to which you
have access.
Step 2 Access the CLI by starting a Telnet session or by connecting to the console port via the RS-232
connector.
To start a Telnet session on your PC or workstation, enter the following command:
server% telnet
switch_ip_address
Step 3 Enter privileged EXEC mode:
switch> enable
switch#
Step 4 Confirm that you have a 4-MB switch:
switch# show version
