Port LEDs during
Switch POST
1. At the start, all port LEDs are green.
2. Each LED turns off after its test completes.
3. If a test fails, its LED turns amber.
4. System LED turns amber if any test fails.
5. If no test fails, POST completes.
6. On POST completion, LEDs blink
then turn off.
Switch LED indicators
BOOTSTRAP
• Find IOS
• Load it at the RAM
• Find configuration file
• Load it at the RAM
How can access cisco device
Virtual terminal

• Configurations can come
from many sources
Management port – Console Port connection
Management port – AUX port connection
Cisco Software
• Cisco IOS installed inside the router to manage the
hardware it is working on.
• Configuration File is a program file that contain
information for the router to tell it how to react &
respond.

Backing Up and Restoring IOS & Configuration File
Before that:
Make sure you can access the network server from your router.
Ensure that the network server or flash ( Destination ) has a free space.
Verify file naming and path requirements.
Backup IOS but the filename of IOS in flash is mistyping
AHG # copy flash tftp
Source filename [ ]? Silicon
Address or name of remote host [ ]? 192.168.1.1
Destination filename [Silicon ]?
%Error opening flash: Silicon (No such file or directory)

Backing Up and Restoring IOS & Configuration File
Backup IOS , the filename of IOS in flash typed correctly But the TFTP server
is not running

Notes:
•IF the configuration register Value is 0x2100 it will boot the system from
the ROMMON
•IF the configuration register Value is 0x2102 it will check the configuration
file in NVRAM for boot system command if not found it will load from
first file found in the Flash

Cisco Discovery Protocol ( CDP )
CDP is Cisco proprietary Protocol enabled by default on all Cisco devices.
CDP is a layer-2 protocol.
CDP discovers basic information about neighboring Cisco devices.
Information :
Device ID : Hostname of the device.
Capability : Type of the device ( Router , Switch , .... )
Platform : the Model of the device.
Local interface & Port ID : Local & Remote interface.
Address List : IP Address of the device.
Sending CDP Packet every 60 sec and hold time is 180 sec.
