Objectives
- Part 1: Upgrade an IOS Image on a Cisco Device
- Part 2: Backup an IOS Image on a TFTP Server
Scenario
A TFTP server can help manage the storage of IOS images and revisions to IOS images. For any network, it is good practice to keep a backup copy of the Cisco IOS Software image in case the system image in the router becomes corrupted or accidentally erased. A TFTP server can also be used to store new upgrades to the IOS and then deployed throughout the network where it is needed. In this activity, you will upgrade the IOS images on Cisco devices by using a TFTP server. You will also backup an IOS image with the use of a TFTP server.
Instructions
Part 1: Upgrade an IOS Image on a Cisco Device
Step 1: Upgrade an IOS image on a router.
a. Access the TFTP server and enable the TFTP service.
Click TFTP Server > Services tab > TFTP. In the Service row, select On to enable the TFTP service.
Active TFTP service on Server - Packet Tracer
b. Note the IOS image files that are available on the TFTP server.
Which IOS images stored on the server are compatible with a 1941 router?
c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.151-4.M4.bin and c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.155-3.M4a.bin
c. From R2, issue the show flash: command and record the available flash memory.

249856K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)d. Copy the CISCO1941/K9 IOS version 15.5 image for the 1941 router from the TFTP Server to R2.
Note: In an actual network, if there is more than one interface active on the router, you may need to enter the ip tftp source interface command to specify which interface should be used to contact the TFTP server. This command is not supported in PT 7.2 and older versions and is not necessary to complete this activity.

f. Use the boot system command to load the version 15.5 IPBase image on the next reload.
R2(config)# boot system flash c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.155-3.M4a.bin
g. Save the configuration and reload R2.
