Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch for the First Time
Modifying the Supervisor Engine Startup Configuration
Modifying the Boot Field and Using the boot Command
The configuration register boot field determines whether the switch loads an operating system image
and, if so, where it obtains this system image. The following sections describe how to use and set the
configuration register boot field and the procedures you must perform to modify the configuration
register boot field. In ROMMON, you can use the confreg command to modify the configuration register
and change boot settings.

and change boot settings.
Bits 0 through 3 of the software configuration register contain the boot field.
Note
The factory default configuration register setting for systems and spares is 0x2101. However, the
recommended value is 0x0102.

The factory default value for the configuration register is 0x2101. This value is a combination of the following: binary bit 13,
bit 8 = 0x0100 and binary bits 00 through 03 = 0x0001. (See

Boot Field Meaning
00
Stays at the system bootstrap prompt (does not autoboot).
01
Boots the first system image in onboard Flash memory.
02 to 0F
Autoboots using image(s) specified by the BOOT environment variable. If more than one
image is specified, the switch attempts to boot the first image specified in the BOOT
variable. As long as the switch can successfully boot from this image, the same image will
be used on a reboot. If the switch fails to boot from the image specified in the BOOT
variable, the switch will try to boot from the next image listed in the BOOT variable. If the
end of the BOOT variable is reached without the switch booting successfully, the switch
attempts the boot from the beginning of the BOOT variable. The autoboot continues until
the switch successfully boots from one of the images specified in the BOOT variable.
