Aironet 1231

I have an aironet 1231 that died the other day. I boots straight into ROMMON mode. My experience with APs is limited but I thought the command(s) below would reload the image via XMODEM but I can't seem to get it to work

!When first booting up

ap: Xmodem file system is available.

flashfs[0]: unable to allocate available block.

The system has been interrupted, or encountered an error

during initializion of the flash filesystem. The following

commands will initialize the flash filesystem, and finish

loading the operating system software:

flash_init

ether_init

tftp_init

boot

!first I enter.

ap: copy xmodem: flash:

Begin the Xmodem or Xmodem-1K transfer now...

CCBB0flash:: invalid argument

!invalid arguement made me think it wanted the file name.

ap: copy xmodem: flash:c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEC

Begin the Xmodem or Xmodem-1K transfer now...

CCCBB0flash:c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEC: invalid argument

ap:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Mark,

You will need to initialize the flash before the xmodem transfer takes place. Try the following

flash_init

copy xmodem: flash:c1200-k9w7-mx.123-8.JEC

HTH,

Mark
