Hi all,

I have 3550 and 2950 switch.

From 2950 i am able to verify flash as shown below

2950T2>sh flash

Directory of flash:/

    2 -rwx     3721946 Feb 28 1993 17:31:57 -07:00 c2950-i6k2l2q4-mz.121-22.EA13.bin

2950 should have the /md5 option.

Try the command: verify /md5 flash:c3550-ipbase-mz.122-44.SE6.bin

mahesh18 · ‎03-22-2010

Switch# verify /md5 flash:c3550-ipbase-mz.122-44.SE6.bin
...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................

...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................

..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................

verify /md5 (flash:c3550-ipbase-mz.122-44.SE6.bin) = 9fab1c87835b467b998bb917135786c5
