XR software when you power on or reload a router. A version of the ROM Monitor software exists on each card and is factory supplied. The ROM Monitor program provides an initial power-on environment for each card. If the Cisco IOS XR software is rebooted or unable to run, the corresponding card returns to the ROM Monitor mode.
Page 12
Understanding the Role of the Route Switch Processor (RSP) Card The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router contains series of chassis slots, each of which can hold one of several types of line cards (LCs). Two slots in the chassis are reserved for route switch processors (RSP) cards that provide the central point for chassis provisioning and management.
Page 13
Some people get confused when they start to use ROM Monitor mode. It is important to remember that ROM Monitor mode is a router mode, not a mode within the Cisco IOS XR software. It is best to remember that ROM Monitor software and the Cisco IOS XR software are two separate programs that run on the same router.

Information About Router Recovery The standard way to install new software on the RSP card of a Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router is by using the install command in administration EXEC mode. However, if the RSP card is unable to boot the Cisco IOS XR software or you want to completely replace the existing software, you can reinstall the software while the RSP card is in ROM Monitor mode.
We recommend installing or upgrading software packages from administration EXEC mode using PIE files, as described in the Upgrading and Managing Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router System Management Configuration Guide.
Filenames and Version Numbers The files that you can install from ROM Monitor have a vm filename extension. These files contain the software included in the Cisco IOS XR Unicast Routing Core Bundle. The other files in the packages are PIE files.
• Maintenance releases usually do not require a router reboot. vm Filenames and Version Numbers The format for a vm filename for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers is: platform-package_name.vm-major.minor.maintenance The table below describes the other filename components.
◦ Bug fixes • The minor release version does not have to be identical for all software packages operating on the router, but the operating packages must be certified by Cisco as compatible with each other. • A minor release may require a router reboot.
When you install Cisco IOS XR software using the Turboboot method in ROM Monitor mode, you must specify a boot-device for the router. The boot device is the local disk on the RSP card where the Cisco IOS XR software is installed.
• Load the Cisco IOS XR software from a vm file on a TFTP server to the RSP. • Transfer the vm file to a local storage device and then load the Cisco IOS XR software from that storage device to the RSP.
The recommended boot device is disk0:. 8 On the active RSP, boot the Cisco IOS XR software from a vm file on the TFTP server. 9 Reset all other RSPs to boot the Cisco IOS XR software.

The ROM Monitor, which is also known as ROMMON, is a bootstrap program that initializes the hardware and boots the Cisco IOS XR firmware when you power on or restart a Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router. ROM Monitor upgrades can be required to resolve firmware defects or support new features. Typically, ROM Monitor upgrades are infrequent and not required for every Cisco IOS XR software upgrade.
ROMMON A and ROMMON B Each node in a Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router includes two copies of ROM Monitor: ROMMON A and ROMMON B. During power on, ROMMON A loads first. If ROMMON A detects the presence of ROMMON B, it checks the compatibility and integrity of the ROMMON B code.
Serial Interface Processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters (SPAs), including FPGAs. Cisco IOS XR software provides the Cisco FPD upgrade feature to manage the upgrade of FPD images on SIPs and SPAs. For more information on upgrading FPDs, see Upgrading FPD on Cisco IOS XR Software module in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router System Management Configuration Guide.
