IOS 升级
在介绍CISCO路由器IOS升级方法前，有必要对Cisco路由器的存储器的相关知识作以简单介绍。路由器与计算机相似，它也有内存和操作系统。在Cisco路由器中，其操作系统叫做互连网操作系统(Internetwork Operating System)，常简称为IOS。路由器的存储器主要有：
ROM:只读存储器包含路由器正在使用的IOS的一份副本；
RAM:IOS将随机访问存储器分成共享和主存。主要用来存储运行中的路由器配置和与路由协议有关的IOS数据结构；
FLASH (闪存)：用来存储IOS软件映像文件，闪存是可以擦除内存，它能够用IOS的新版本
覆写，IOS升级主要是闪存中的IOS映像文件进行更换。
NVRAM：非易失性随机访问存储器，用来存储系统的配置文件。
IOS升级方法一
在对能够正常启动的CISCO路由器的IOS进行升级时，比较简单。具体步骤如下：
1、寻找一种TFTP服务器软件（有CISCO公司的TFTPServer或3COM公司的3Cserver等，在升级较大IOS映象文件时，建议用3Cserver），安装在一台计算机上，将要升级的IOS映象文件拷贝到相关的目录中（例：D:\），并运行TFTP服务器软件，通过菜单设置Root目录为拷贝IOS映象文件所在目录（如D:\）。假设该计算机的IP地址为10.32.10.1；
2、连接路由器的console口与PC机的COM1，使用PC的超级终端软件访问路由器，将路由器的地址设为10.32.10.32（与计算机的IP地址同网段即可）。建议在进行IOS升级前将原有IOS文件备份下来，防止待升级的IOS文件存在问题不可用；

3、对路由器进行IOS升级；

IOS升级方法二
由于升级失败后或者路由器的config-register寄存器值为0x2101时，开启路由器时、或者在开启（某些型号）Cisco路由器的电源开关后30秒内按下Ctrl+break键，中断路由器的正常启动，路由器都会进入rom监视模式,即Router(boot)>，在这种情形下，对路由器的IOS进行升级，也比较简单。首先进入特权模式下，即
QUOTE:
Router(boot)>en
Router(boot)#
其他升级步骤同方法一，即：执行copy tftp flash命令，对IOS进行升级。升级完成后，不要忘了修改config-register寄存器值为0x2102（恢复正常值）。
QUOTE:
Router(boot)# t
Router(boot)( config)# config-register 0x2102
Router(boot)( config)#exit
Router(boot)#wr
Router(boot)#reload
重启即可。
IOS升级方法三
由于不小心使用了命令erase flash或升级失败后或在开启（某些型号）Cisco路由器的电源开关后30秒内按下Ctrl+break键，中断路由器的正常启动，路由器都会进入rom监视模式,即 rommon 1>，在这种情形下，对路由器的IOS进行升级，情况要稍微复杂一点。在rommon 1>状态下，可键?请求帮助。(1为命令行序号，每执行1条命令自动加1)

在rommon 1>状态下有两种升级IOS方法。
（一）、通过Xmodem命令（注：Xmodem与实际的modem没有任何联系 只是一个传输协议 数据是通过终端的串口和路由器的Console口灌进去的）升级IOS，具体步骤如下：
1、用Cisco原配的线缆连接路由器的console口与PC机的COM1，使用PC机的超级终端软件访问路由器，这时不需要对PC和路由器配置任何地址。
2、在这个模式下，输入Xmodem命令，即：
QUOTE:
rommon 2 > xmodem -c c2600-i-mz.122-11.bin
（-c是带校验，c2600-i-mz.122-11.bin为存放在PC机上的IOS映像文件）

采用这种方法时，由于使用console口来传送，速率为9600bps，需要时间较长。因此可修改console口速率利用xmodem命令实现快速升级IOS。具体方法如下：

注意：在按reset键前，需要修改串口速度（我的电脑---端口属性----串口速度调为115200），然后再修改超级终端里设置速率为115200，记住，一定要这么做，否则会出现乱码！ 然后关闭这个超级终端，重新建立一个超级终端连接，重新启动系统后，出现

此时，在超级终端的菜单上的“传送”---“发送文件”----选择IOS映像文件所在地以及选择使用“xmodem”协议，点击“发送”即可。等待10-20分钟左右就可升级完3-6M的IOS文件！待升级完成后，请记住修改回计算机串口与超级终端、路由器confreg下的xmodem等传输速率为9600bps。

最好关掉电源后，重新启动。利用xmodem命令实现路由器IOS升级速度较慢，往往等上很长时间，为了快速升级，可以采用下列方法。
二）通过tftpdnld命令升级IOS，具体步骤如下：
1、用Cisco原配的线缆连接路由器的console口与PC机的COM1，使用PC机的超级终端软件访问路由器；用一根双绞线连接路由器的eth0/0口与PC机的网卡。
2、将路由器的eth0/0口IP地址设为10.32.10.32；PC机的IP地址设为10.32.10.1。将要升级的IOS映象文件拷贝到相关的目录中，并运行TFTP服务器软件，通过菜单设置Root目录为拷贝IOS映象文件所在目录。
3、通过set 命令查看配置参数
QUOTE:

PS1=rommon ! >

RET_2_RTS=

4、在 rommon 状态下输入：（注意大小写）

rommon 4 >IP_SUBNET_MASK＝255.255.255.0 （路由器的掩码）

执行tftpdnld命令进行ios升级，有时可能会报错或命令不执行，这时只要用sync命令保存配置后，重新启动路由器（最好关掉电源再开机）后，再执行tftpdnld命令就可以了。
