I am so glad I came across your video. Thank you so much. I'm new to configuring switched. I thought I may have bricked it. You video saved me! Cheers!
The best and most clear cut explanation so far. Thank you very much brother. Much appreciated 👍👍👍👍👍 Doubt, does this delete or alter the previously existing startup config(other than baud rate)?
I love you so much mate, this tutorial helped me a lot to recover the image (that i accidentally deleted) from my switch, it's the only good useful vid that i used thx !❤❤
Hi Sir, I wanted to transfer the file Below is my command: copy xmodem:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin flash:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin but I received an error called the xmodem operation already closed by remote peer. Tried flash_init also cannot. Do you have any idea on it?
Hey Alvin, I had a few ideas: Does the transfer fail to begin or does it timeout? Are you currently using terra terminal? Sometimes you need to have the file ready to click almost instantly to start the transfer so make sure you have the directory pre-selected. That file is also very big so check that you have enough space on your flash.
Hey Travis, Are you using terra terminal? Once you press enter on the xmodem command, the transfer needs to be initiated in the terra terminal window also. To do this you need to go to File > Transfer > XMODEM > Send > Select your image (the .bin file) and then click open, the transfer should begin. Make sure the image name matches the image name in the command (source and destination), sometimes if the transfer is not initiated in terra terminal it may timeout so try to do it a quickly as you can. I hope this helps.
You could contact Cisco support, often Cisco will let you download a new image because the old one has security vulnerabilities. You may also be able to find the image on the internet, i'm not saying you should do this option. But if you do make sure you check the hash because it could be a non-genuine image. What switch do you own?
@@stptech6156 I have a Cisco Catalyst 2960S-F24PS-L but I don't have the image. Cisco does let you download an image? on which case? my switch is EoL, if I ask them they could provide me with an image? that would be a dream come true tbh
Hey Manish, if you don’t have a support contract with Cisco you will need to look around the net. Look on Cisco’s website for the image you need, copy the filename. Try googling the name of the image you want in quotations. Make sure you check the images md5 hash, this will ensure that it is a legitimate image.

Nice video, after recovering IOS image,did our old configurations will remain same or loss old configurations??
Yes, the startup config should still be there as long as it is not deleted. However, it would still be worth backing it up just in case.

No problem, will do!

Hi Sir, I wanted to transfer the file
Below is my command:
copy xmodem:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin flash:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin
but I received an error called the xmodem operation already closed by remote peer. Tried flash_init also cannot. Do you have any idea on it?
Hey Alvin, I had a few ideas:

Are you currently using terra terminal?
Sometimes you need to have the file ready to click almost instantly to start the transfer so make sure you have the directory pre-selected.
That file is also very big so check that you have enough space on your flash.
Thanks for this. When I tried to send the file, it says READ ONLY FILE SYSTEM. Any suggestions please?
do you need to use a RJ45 to USB console cable for this to work? or a USB to USB console cable will work as well?
This is not working for me i get an error that there is no such file in directory
Very good explanation 👍
Glad you think so!
ive tried 3 times but x modem wont transfer it pulls xmodem up it sits there for a minute then closes down
Hey Travis,
Are you using terra terminal?
Once you press enter on the xmodem command, the transfer needs to be initiated in the terra terminal window also.
To do this you need to go to File > Transfer > XMODEM > Send > Select your image (the .bin file) and then click open, the transfer should begin.
