4. Download IOS from router to PC

This is needed to backup our previous IOS, just in case if the router cann’t boot with new IOS.
So, you can restore the old IOS into router.

<H3C>system-view

[H3C]tftp 10.10.10.1 put flash:/main.bin (10.10.10.1 is IP of TFTP server)

To list files in the router (flash card), just type :

[H3C]dir flash:/ or

[H3C]dir
Directory of flash:/

1 -rw- 10958042 170 2081 85:176:23 main.bin


2 -rw- 5457 Aug 18 2010 15:23:57 config.cfg

5. Upload IOS from PC to router

[H3C]tftp 10.10.10.1 get flash:/h3c.bin (h3c.bin is my new IOS)

6. Set new IOS as default (main)

[H3C]bootfile main flash:/h3c.bin

To make sure that new IOS was installed in the router just type this command :

[H3C]display bootvar

Boot file on flash is: flash:/h3c.bin

7. Save current configuration

[H3C]save

This is to anticipate if your current configuration was erased. (I found this case from my
client..^_^)

8. Reboot router

<H3C>reboot
