  3. 1. 4-stack of Cisco 2960S switches 2. One of the switches is bad and needs replacing. The master of the stack is not bad 3. Switch needs the same IOS version as the old switches 4. Login to the old switches and run the command:"show ver" to find the version you need 5. Login to Cisco TAC and download version to laptop

  4. 6. After the download is complete, try to connect your laptop to new switch on port 48 via ethernet cable. Starting up a free TFTP server on my laptop and pointed the folder to the folder where the downloaded file is. The filename is c2960s-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE2.bin. So You can verify that this is the same as the old switch by running the command:"show flash" on the old switch and checking the latest firmware file date and matching it. 7. Connect the Cisco terminal cable from your computer to the terminal port on the new switch 8. You now need to put your computer's ethernet jack into a custom IP address: 192.168.1.200, 255.255.255.0, 192.168.1.1

  5. 9. Now on the switch, enter enable mode. Now type the following commands #conf t (config)#int Vlan1 (config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0 (config-if)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1 (config-if)#end (config)#int Gi1/0/48 (config-if)#switchport mode access (config-if)#switchport access vlan1 (config-if)#end (config)#end #show run 10. Verify your settings

  6. 11. Next you need to connect to the TFTP server and upload the firmware #copy tftp: flash: Address or name of remote host []? 192.168.1.200 Source file name []? c2960s-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE2.bin Destination file name []? c2960s-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE2.bin 12. It now accesses your TFTP folder and copies everything over. 13. Now check for new IOS in your flash by typing in: "sh flash"

  7. 14. Now change to the new flash as the boot system flash, save your settings to memory, and reload the switch: #conf t (config)#boot system flash: c2960s-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE2.bin (config)#end #copy run start (enter to save to startup config) #reload (enter to confirm reload) 15. After the switch is back up, do a “show ver” and verify that the switch is the same version as your existing stack.

  8. 16. Now unplug the whole stack, change the stack module into the RMA switch, then turn everything back on at once. After you had done those steps, you can easy replace your Cisco 2960 switch and upgrade firmware.
