 Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2003 1:15 pm Post subject: Copying IOS between routers |
 |
|
I have several 2500 routers only one of which has 12.0 IOS. I know I
could send that file to a tftp server and upgrade all of them. Two
questions:
(1) Is this legal? I completely own all routers and their software.
Only I will be using all the routers for educational and non
commercial purposes for a small time.
(2) Is this possible? I know I cant move an IOS from a 2500 to 2600
but are there differences between a 2501 and 2514 IOSes? |

If you legally bought the routers, then it's not illegal,

There is a big difference between 2500 and 2600 (hardware difference)
so the IOS is different.
About the difference between IOS for 2501 and 2514 I checked the cisco
site for IOS downloads and the same IOS is used for platforms from
2501 to 2525.
So you can upgrade the IOS without a problem, but just incase anything
goes wrong , you better back-up the old IOS.. |
