How to copy an IOS from one 2500 router to another.

mobri09

Since we all struggle to get our hands on IOS's etc. I thought I would post this. I had three routers and 1 was running an IOS version 12. Soley for educational purposes I copied the 12.0 version from that router to the others. This was very simple and only took about 15 minutes max. I did this via serial. Remember your subnets have to be setup first. This might have already been posted but thought I would share.

Nice, I have to give this a shot with my 2600s, as they are all on different versions.
