Installing System Images

Step 9 Verify that you have access to the TFTP server by pinging it from your local Ethernet port with one of

the following commands.

rommon> ping server_ip_address

rommon> ping server

Step 10 If necessary define the path and filename on the TFTP file server from which you are downloading the

image.

rommon> IMAGE=path/file_name

Caution Make sure that you enter the IMAGE command in all uppercase. You can enter the other ROMMON

commands in either lower case or upper case, but the IMAGE command specifically must be all

uppercase.

UNIX Example

rommon> IMAGE=/system_images/IPS-SSP_10-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.img

Note The path is relative to the default tftpboot directory of the UNIX TFTP server. Images located

in the default tftpboot directory do not have any directory names or slashes in the IMAGE

specification.

Windows Example

rommon> IMAGE=\system_images\IPS-SSP_10-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.img

Step 11 Enter set and press Enter to verify the network settings.

Note You can use the sync command to store these settings in NVRAM so they are maintained across

boots. Otherwise, you must enter this information each time you want to boot an image from

ROMMON.

Step 12 Download and install the system image.

rommon> tftp

Note If the network settings are correct, the system downloads and boots the specified image on the

ASA 5585-X IPS SSP. Be sure to use the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP image.

Caution To avoid corrupting the system image, do not remove power from the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP while the

system image is being installed.

For More Information

• For a list of recommended TFTP servers, see TFTP Servers, page D-14.

• For the procedure for initializing the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP with the setup command, see Advanced

Setup for the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP, page B-21.
